CLASS DESCRIPTION

• Comfortable workout clothes
• Don’t worry about shoes, as you will do the class barefoot
• A yoga mat isn’t essential, but bring one if you like
Each class is made up of 45 minutes of simple but challenging exercises, followed by 10 minutes of relaxation and meditation.
1. You will begin with easy, flowing Tai Chi moves to leave your day behind, center yourself and warm your body.
2. The instructor will then take you through various yoga and pilates sequences to strengthen and tone your key muscle groups. Poses and stretches are used to create suppleness and flexibility.
3. The final 10 minutes are set aside for the widely acknowledged mental and physiological benefits of meditation which also enhances the effects of the exercise.
There is no doubt that you will experience great benefits from coming to BODYBALANCE® just once a week, but some people try to attend up to three times a week. It’s really up to you!
