Essentrics – Aging Backwards®
This class is slow paced and easy to follow. As seen on PBS, this is functional movement in an age reversing workout that uses your full body to restore movement in your joints, flexibility in your muscles, relieve pain, and stimulate your cells to increase energy and vibrancy. Essentrics draws on the flowing movements of tai chi that create health and balance, the strengthening theories behind ballet that create long, lean, flexible muscles and the healing principles of physiotherapy that create a pain free body. Essentrics is effective for mobility, flexibility, strength, toning, balance, posture, range of motion, and pain-relief, as well as injury prevention and recovery. Bring a yoga mat, towel, and strap/band. Location: FAC Rm. 301 Instructor: Natalia von Somoff
