Strength & Balance 2

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

Instructor:
Tim Harris
Description:
How is your balance? This class will take you through a progression of balance challenging exercises to help you evaluate how your balance is today and what you can do to improve.
Equipment Needed:
(2) Half Domes, (2) Blocks, a large Exercise Ball
* Note: Please always take care to work within your own parameters and make your own safety a priority. If you feel like something demonstrated in class is beyond your abilities, skip that exercise and do another one. If you want to challenge yourself, please be aware of your surroundings and make your environment as safe as possible to prevent injury.
