Back to Basics: 1A/1B

Instructor:
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:
An exploration of a variety of positions, for both work and rest, that you can use when you work at a low table, or garden, or clean the boat, or whatever! Play with it. Move more. Have fun and feel GOOD!
Equipment Needed:
2 Bolsters, Half Dome, 2 Blankets, Strap (maybe more or less stuff depending on your bolstering needs)

Instructor:
Michael Kaffel
Description:
This class will focus on the major joints of the body- shoulders, hips, and spine, with a little balance practice thrown in.
Equipment Needed:
Large Exercise Ball, Half Dome, Strap, Bolster
*As usual, take care with the balance exercises in this class!

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.
