Strength & Balance 2

Instructor:
Breena Maggio
Description:
We’ll make our own mini obstacle course to mimic some natural type movements, and intersperse that with corrective exercises. You’ll get to crawl, balance, pick stuff up from the floor, etc.
Equipment:
A bunch of random stuff J Half Dome, Strap (or 2×4 or line of masking tape), Tennis Ball, Rocks, Wedge, Pool Noodle, Pillow Train, Rolled Blanket (long log)…

Instructor:
Breena Maggio
Description:
Do you have the strength to move your own legs around? How about your range of motion? You will have a chance to test and re-check your abilities in a variety of exercises.
Equipment:
Half Dome, (2) Straps, Monster Ring, (2) Bolsters or a Stool

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:
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.
