Essentrics
Please note: the catalog had the classes switched. Severina will be teaching the Gentle Stretching class, and Cindy will be teaching the Full-Body class.
Essentrics lengthens and strengthens every muscle in the body through a dynamic combination of movements. This completely original full-body workout draws on the flowing movements of tai chi and ballet to create a balanced, flexible, and pain-free body. Essentrics rebalances the body, prevents and treats injuries, unlocks tight joints, and develops lean, strong, and flexible muscles with immediate changes to your posture.
Full-Body: A faster tempo with additional emphasis on toning.
Gentle Stretching: For all ages and fitness levels and for those who are looking for a gentle, slow-tempo class that will help produce greater joint mobility.
For all classes, please bring a yoga mat and small towel.
