at South CongressForget the myth that you need to be flexible to try yoga - this class proves the opposite! Flexibility + Mobility focuses specifically on safely increasing your range of motion through targeted techniques. Each week tackles different muscle groups and joints using a variety of approaches.
The class combines functional movements, CARs (Controlled Articular Rotations), Kinstretch techniques, and myofascial release with props like straps, blocks, bolsters, and tennis balls to help you access deeper stretches comfortably.
You'll learn how proper stretching decreases injury risk, improves joint function, and enhances overall movement quality. Perfect for tight muscles from sitting, sports, or stress - all levels welcome with modifications offered throughout. Progress happens regardless of your starting point, making this one of our most accessible and practical classes.
