Classes have moments of focus but are light hearted, social and supportive.
Balance your exercise with a good diet and you'll have the vitality you need to sail through life.
WARM UPS
The first 10 minutes sets the foundation of the class. We move slowly, with body awareness and breathing exercises to release tension, find a more neutral posture and prepare for the more dynamic side of the class.
CARDIO (HIIT)
Fast moving exercise (HIIT) is the most effective and time efficient training for metabolic and heart health. (HIIT stands for High Intensity Interval Training).
This cardio-vascular aspect of the class really is for everybody. Whether you are completely new or have lots of experience, you will get the support and guidance you need. Some people will exercise hard and fast and others will take it more easily. It all depends on your short term and long term history. Again, you will always be guided by your instructor and your body to the appropriate intensity for that moment.
On most classes, we enjoy around four x 30 second HIITS (fun, intense but short bursts of exercise) with active rest and breathing intervals. If this week's class does involve HIITS, including 90 second rest periods, we allow a maximum of 10 minutes.
STRENGTH
Throughout each class we spend around 15 minutes on a focused routine of slow, functional strength training. This is not about how many lifts you do or how heavy a weight... you simply need to train slowly, have good form and move with your whole body.
We need a strong physique for life's challenges, for sports and for good posture. Let's not get frail! Some weeks will be geared more towards the upper body and others, the lower body. We always exercise our torso for back and abdominal conditioning and perform the subtle side of strength... balance training.
RESTORATIVE
We dedicate about 15 minutes of our time to flexibility exercises. We use light stretching techniques, joint loosening, postural exercises and 4 different types of self massage balls.
The suppleness side of our class really supports all the other aspects. In time, you will find your strength training improves, your posture gets better, any tension reduces and your sense of balance is enhanced.
RELAXATION
The last 5 - 10 minutes are for relaxation. This begins the recovery from exercise and allows your whole nervous system to rest and reset. It is a calming and nurturing time for your body and mind. I hope you leave the class with an overall sense of positive yet relaxed energy.
Having said all this, every class is different...
I am by nature creative and many people who have trained with me for 20+ years are still surprised with what we get up to!
