Practical Pilates - Explore the Core
Build a strong, functional foundation. Learn effective core activation to improve strength and reduce back pain, diastasis recti, and pelvic floor dysfunction. Suitable for all levels.
​
Whether you're new to Pilates or have experience but wonder if you're engaging the right muscles for the most benefit, this class is for you. We’ll explore the anatomy of the core, practice proper engagement techniques, and identify common imbalances that may be contributing to core weakness or related issues.
​
Many are surprised to learn that true core training doesn’t require endless reps or long holds. When the right muscles—especially those often underused—are properly activated, fatigue can come quickly. It’s not about doing more, but about doing it right for better results with less effort.
​
Class is limited to 10 participants and will fill quickly. Early registration is encouraged. Please bring a mat and hand towel to class.
Wednesdays September 10 - October 29th, 5:20-6:20pm

Gentle Flow Yoga
Gentle Flow Yoga provides "me" time by allowing us to breathe and focus on ourselves in the present moment. Flowing through a series of yoga poses and stretches facilitates stress reduction, improves strength and flexibility, while also nourishing the body and mind. Poses will be performed standing, on hands and knees, and while seated and lying on the floor. Balance and restorative yoga poses will be incorporated, and class will conclude with a relaxation segment focusing on breathwork to reduce stress. Please bring a yoga mat to class.
Wednesdays (resuming Sept 10), 6:30-7:30pm (St. Michael Elementary)
