Ways to move

  • Pilates

    Strengthen and lengthen at the same time, with resistance and no impact on the joints. Mat and apparatus: Reformer, Tower/Cadillac, Wunda chair, ladder barrel, spine corrector, pedi pull, FuseLadder, CoreAlign and Redcord.

  • Yoga

    Body, breath and mind, flowing through postures and holding them. Hatha, Vinyasa, Yin, restorative and Yoga Nidra / meditation.

  • Barre / Conditioning

    Dynamic and isolated movements driven by form and function, sometimes set to a beat, with bands, balls, blocks, discs and weights.

  • Eldoa

    Specific spinal postures created by a French osteopath that build myofascial tension to open space at a chosen joint. Many clients find real relief for back and neck pain.
