FUSION SLOW FLOW - YOGA THERAPY & PILATES
PACE: MEDIUM (MODERATE INTENSITY)
Fusion slow flow is a slow-paced combination class of two transformational methods to build strength, improve stability, enhance mobility, and calm the mind. Yoga brings in elements of mindful breathing and poses to increase flexibility, balance, and mental focus. Pilates emphasizes core engagement, muscle strengthening, and controlled movements to enhance stability and promote good posture.
Yoga therapy is a whole-body application of yoga principles and practices, including postures, breathing, meditation, and relaxation, to address specific physical, mental, and emotional health conditions. In this class, our focus will be on addressing specific spinal conditions and enhancing overall spinal health by strengthening and stretching supportive structures and promoting relaxation.
This class blends mindful flow with targeted strengthening to create a balanced, resilient body.
This spine-focused class will increase stability, reduce stress, improve posture, calm the mind, and strengthen the body in all the right places - from the feet and legs, hips and pelvic floor, to the core, back, and shoulders. Giving you the best of both worlds to decompress the body and mind while enhancing body awareness, pain relief, and spinal health. This class offers a low to medium-intensity 'work-in' and you will learn how to practice and move to suit your unique body.
This class is accessible to all, including beginners and those with back concerns. It's also great for those seeking a comprehensive movement class to build healthy habits, and anyone who values the health of their spine. Please discuss any limitations or spine conditions with me. This class is strong but mindful — perfect for those wanting a more active class without compromising spinal integrity or emotional regulation, and building strength without force or risking injury.
The framework is based on functional and accessible
practices, incorporating elements of yoga therapy with a focus on spine safety.
Yoga therapy takes a holistic approach to better health by utilizing yoga tools
to address specific physical, mental, and emotional needs and goals. A spine-safe approach ensures that the spine receives the
necessary movement to remain healthy while modifying postures that may be
unsafe or harmful for some individuals. This functional approach
accommodates skeletal variations and prioritizes accessible postures for
everyone. Through my inclusive classes, I create a supportive space that allows
students to embrace their whole selves, enabling them to nurture and heal. I
emphasize the importance of working with our unique bodies and modifying our
practices to celebrate our individuality.
