Stretch It Out II

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:
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:
This is a low back, hips, and core focused class, using the red ball for a wide variety of exercises.
Equipment Needed: Red Ball, Strap, Bolster

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.
