We work on the "McGill 3" exercises for core strength before going through a series of mobility exercises.

Feeling cooped up lately? Me too. As dancers, we need to stretch and move as much as possible. This little practice does just that, without requiring a giant amount of space. Come feel expansive and breathe BIG. You can expect a little bit of everything, a ballet salad if you will: stretched arms, pointed toes, and a core muscle 'wake-up'.

This class is perfect if you're short on time and want a fun practice that will get your heart rate up. We start off with sun salutations to warm up the body, then move into a flow offering gentle reps and pulses that will sculpt those muscles. You'll feel the heat in your core, for sure, but this is a full body energizer! A block and hand weights are suggested, but improvise if you need. Enjoy!!

A slow, steady build of deep hip, hamstring and spinal opening, culminating in a headstand with a twist... enjoy!

Dancers make it look easy, but this warm-up is definitely a challenge! We'll explore some backbends, ballet-style, along with our usual slow, controlled legwork. You can expect to focus on some classic barre exercises, along with delicious cool-down stretches.

A quick floor practice to get your body warmed up for the day. Together, we'll explore how leg extension originates from the lower abdominals. You can expect to focus on moving your long legs through space with control by engaging the core muscles.

The perfect stretch after a long bike ride—or really, whenever you need to down-regulate and feel great.

Sometimes you need to get in and get it done. This 13-minute core flow is a great warm-up for a longer class or a nice way to move when time is limited.

A brief sun salutation warm-up followed by a classic barre. We introduce new combinations, taking the time to explain each exercise. You can expect a lot of attention to foot articulation, position of the hips, and a slow but steady workout.

A great practice for days when you need to get in, get right with yourself and get going! We open every major muscle group with special attention given to the hips in side plank variations and lizard pose with many options. Opening for the shoulders, quads and hamstrings along the way, and options for bridge pose or upward facing bow! Enjoy, yogi runners!
