Our instructor will guide you through various sequences designed to target the body’s connective tissues such as tendons, fasciae and ligaments in order to increase circulation in joints and improve flexibility. Breathing techniques incorporated in this program will help to lower levels of stress and anxiety, leaving you with a sense of calm.
