    We begin everyone’s Restorative Exercise™ (RE) education with the 1A: Intro to Alignment, which teaches us the fundamentals of RE. The next step in the RE protocol is 1B, which covers the next set of motor skills for optimal gait. We’re goin’ back to basics here, which is always a good thing to do! This is a great opportunity to make sure you understand the foundation of your alignment practice.

    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    We haven’t done a class with the large ball in awhile, so this was fun! This class focuses quite a bit on spinal mobility and separating the motion of the pelvis from the ribcage- getting better at moving them independently from each other.
    Equipment Needed:
    Large Exercise Ball, Red Squishy Ball, Half Dome, Blanket

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    This class will use the “Waitress/Waiter” exercise to evaluate the external rotation of your shoulders. Lots of chest opening, shoulder mobility, and scapular stabilization.
    Equipment Needed:
    Block, Bolster, Half Dome, Blanket, Yellow Tube with handles and an attachment point.
    Note: We lost the last couple minutes of the video, so here’s basically what we did: finish the unwinding, add in wide scapulae, then re-check your external rotation in the Waitress. Voilá! Amazing right?

  • Instructor:
    Tim Harris
    Description:
    Using breath and continuity of movement, you will be led through a series of exercises focusing especially on the feet, spine, hips, and shoulders (ya, it’s pretty much everything).
    Equipment Needed:
    Maybe a Half Dome, Block, or other bolster item
    * Note: This class may challenge you a bit, so transition carefully and work within YOUR boundaries. If you have a hip or knee replacement, you may need to take extra care and modify or skip some of the movements on that side.

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    For many of us, due to our lifestyles, we have a tendency to practice postures that shorten the musculature down the entire length of the posterior (rear side) of our bodies. From our necks, to our low backs, to the length of the musculature down the backs of our legs, we have a lot of tension back there! This hour will give those muscles some much-needed lengthening and possibly bring some awareness to these areas as you go through your day and cycle through your habitual postures.
    Equipment Needed:
    Half Dome, Block, Bolster, Strap, 2 tennis balls in a sock
    *We had some technical difficulties with the camera angle, so please excuse my cut off head…fortunately, it’s not necessary for the instructor to have a head to follow along with these exercises.

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    For a mobile spine, we need abdominal muscles that work all the way from the bottom to the top and from the deeper layers to the more superficial layers. We tend to move the spine in big chunks. In this class we’ll tease apart some of these pieces for greater mobility and ease of movement.
    Equipment Needed:
    Bolster, Half Dome, Block, Red Squishy Ball
