ROOT to RISE
About the Class
This mat class demonstrates information and practical techniques for your to-go (anywhere in the world) “toolbox” to allow you to re-calibrate your levels of mind-body stress/wellbeing any time you need. This is the online mat-based variation of our playful, deep and rich experimental movement hour where we practice releasing mind driven creativity and observe and heed the guidance of the body's capacity to receive. Our benefits are always a calmer, more grounded nervous system. Less tension, aches and pains. Deeper fuller breath. Clearer mindsets and happier attitudes. Refreshed energy and a greater sense of connection to self, our rightful well-being, and the world around us. That's a lot. But we thrive on this practice. If you're intrigued please check out the prerequisites. We also offer a Reformer & Roller-based variation of this work.
