(Strength & Mobility…what did you think I meant?)

Long ago neighbor

Do you find you are struggling to maintain the strength required to do the things you love, or simply to perform the tasks of daily living? Are you fit and would like to maintain or increase your fitness in a safe fun manner? The focus in this class is Keep Your Body Prepared For Life…whatever that means for you: gardening, picking up a baby, sports, spending time at a computer without pain, or just simply taking a walk! 

Most folks know what is required for maintaining or increasing strength: movement under load (and please note, your body weight counts as load). That’s where the mobility piece of the puzzle comes in:

more mobility -> more movement capacity.

more movement capcity-> more opportunity to strengthen safely!

In this class series you will learn a series of exercises that help you create or maintain a body that allows you to do the things you love to do, and the things you need to do!

When: Come join me in a 4 week zoom series: 3/4-3/25 Fridays, 8-9:15 a.m. PST.

Cost: $40 for the series. Included in the cost you will get a recording of the class (life happens…in case you have to miss a class).*

What you will need (all readily available items):

  1. A yoga strap or bathrobe belt.
  2. 2 chairs (somewhat sturdy please)
  3. A selection of weights, lighter to heavier (light = 1-2 lbs, medium = 3-5 lbs., and heavy = 10-15 lbs). If you do not have weights you can use: two cans of soup (or anything that size), two 1 liter/quart bottles of water, and two 1 gallon jugs of water.
  4. A medium size towel.
  5. Three Anatomy in Motion foot wedges; or three wash cloths or socks.
  6. Floor space for floor exercises.
  7. A pen and paper to write down questions — I will leave time for a brief Q & A at the end of each class. Often, if you have a question, others in the class will have the same question.
