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:
Michael Kaffel
Description:
The “Sit & Rise Test” is a decent predictor of all-cause mortality from cardiovascular disease. At the beginning of class, you’ll do a before test and then re-test at the end, after Michael takes you through a series of exercises to improve all mobilities required to get up from and down to the floor.
Equipment Needed:
Bolster, Half Dome, Block
