This class is designed to increase muscular tone in the entire body bringing together four components of exercise across a variety of formats:
- Traditional Barre movement with high repetitions for muscular strengthening
- Yoga breathing and selective Asana for balance and lengthening
- Some Ballet and dance techniques for a dynamic workout to facilitate new muscular definition including supportive tissue
- Functional strengthening using body weight and light free weights
- Cardiovascular training through increasing the heart rate for a well-rounded experience
This will give you a total body workout while improving posture, mobility, stability, balance, and endurance. Movements can be modified to increase or decrease intensity as needed, making this class suitable for all levels including the use of individualized weight via hand weights and bodyweight, Barre props, and options for your personal growth.
Neida leads this class in an accessible way, allowing all to feel welcome and having fun without feeling intimidated or feeling forced to push too hard. Please wear comfortable clothing for movement. You may join with bare feet or wearing Yoga/ Pilates socks (with “grippies”).
