Forget 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.
Props are like the supporting cast in a yoga class - they help you get into the right position and provide support when needed. Think of them as your trusty sidekicks on your yoga journey.
The breath is like the DJ of your yoga practice - it sets the rhythm and keeps everything flowing smoothly. It helps you stay focused, calm, and connected to your body as you move through the poses.
Hatha and Vinyasa yoga are like two sides of the same coin - they both incorporate physical postures, but they have different approaches. Hatha yoga is slower and more static, focusing on holding each pose for longer periods of time, while Vinyasa yoga is more fluid and dynamic, with a focus on linking breath and movement.
Yoga helps with energy levels and fatigue like a power nap, helping you recharge and refresh. It can help improve sleep quality, reduce stress, and increase overall energy and vitality. Plus, it's a lot more relaxing than trying to sleep on a crowded airplane.
Yoga is like a gentle cardio workout for your heart. It gets your blood flowing, strengthens your heart muscle, and can help lower blood pressure. Plus, you don't have to worry about your heart skipping a beat when you see your yoga instructor – unless they're really, really attractive.
