​
ALL bodies need to keep moving. Classes are sequenced to create movement, increasing range of motion, strength, stamina, endurance; improving balance and mental focus. There is also a focus on fascial movement, exercises for bone health. Many of the classes will use hand weights.

"Gentle" and chair themed classes: These classes are designed for those who have been affected by cancer or living with a diagnosed 'health condition' that has set them back. Perfect for those under a doctor's care and starting (back) to add movement into their routine. Some health conditions may include osteopenia, osteoporosis, arthritis, osteoarthritis. Many have had surgeries, treatments and taking medications. This impacts their ability to move well, they may have physical limitation and certainly affects their quality of life. Classes will focus be regaining range of motion, improving balance, cognition (brain fog), strengthen the body. The classes will increase/improve flexibility, mobility while reducing stress and tension in the body. Lymphatic drainage and circulation exercises are generally incorporated into the classes. There are many side effects that accompanies treatments and medications (insomnia, fatigue, depression, digestive issues to name just a few) and are addressed in the classes. Students are always encouraged to practice at their own pace and take as many breaks as needed.
