We challenge our deepest core stabilizers while toning the entire body. With the physio ball, light weights and/or exercise bands, we strengthen and stretch the body in the four planes (front, sides and back) via slow intentional movements. It is a dance with gravity's pull, so there is some sweat and lots of laughter too. This class is great for athletes, mothers after childbirth, those with non-acute back pain and people who want to get stronger and healthier. Open to all levels; this is a physically challenging class. We do have a few physio balls, or you can bring your own. See you there!
