A healthy pelvic floor can improve posture, core strength, and breath capacity, while also helping with issues such as low back discomfort, hip tightness, or pelvic tension. This class is open to all levels and especially supportive for those navigating transitions such as postpartum recovery, peri/menopause, or healing from pelvic trauma. For all female-identifying people.
