NEW DAYTIME CLASS Yogalates
Flexy Fit
Flexy Fit started as a barre-inspired workout. It is a combination of yoga, Pilates, ballet, aerobics, calisthenics, and a cardio burst! It’s a FULL BODY WORKOUT!
Over time, Flexy began incorporating elements of her own personal workouts, which include aerial conditioning. A large focus is on on baring one’s own body weight, which is one of the healthiest forms of strength training. This class has been nicknamed “Yogalates on steroids!”
- Intermediate/Advanced
- Intensity: High!
- Recommended for dancers, athletes, aerialists, those looking to sculpt & strengthen, and those looking for a challenge!
- Modifications and moving at your own pace is encouraged!
Flexy Flow is an ACTIVE yoga class that focuses on linking complex, creative sequences together. It is a flowing sequence that links breath with movement while getting the heart rate up. It is great for building strength, increasing flexibility, improving cardiovascular health, and maintaining a lean, toned, healthy body.
All classes are finished with an essential oil infused warm compress.
Variations & modifications are always available. Move at your own pace.
- Intermediate/Advanced
* NOT recommended for people with limited mobility or looking for relaxation.
Flexy Flow Yoga
Gentle Yoga & Self-Myofascial Release (SMR)
This class is a combination of gentle yoga, deep stretches and SMR (Self-Myofascial Release) therapy; perfect for relaxation! You can expect to hold stretches for longer periods of time to allow for deep opening of connective tissues. Stretching coupled with SMR therapy will dramatically improve range of motion (flexibility) more than just stretching alone. SMR is great for relieving muscle pain, treating sciatica, plantar facetious, and this list goes on!
Self-Myofascial Release (SMR) is a therapeutic approach that focuses on relieving muscle pain that affects the fascia (connective tissue that covers the muscles). It is a hands-on technique that works to relax, lengthen and realign your fascia, thus increasing your flexibility. The goal is to bring you pain relief and increase your range of motion using props such as lacrosse balls and small rollers. This is a very popular choice for BEGINNERS or to take after a faster-paced class. It is perfect before bedtime as it helps calm the nervous system, enabling your body to relax, release, & unwind.
