In this class, we explore upper-body mobility, thoracic flexion and extension, and shoulder movement while building support through the lower body, deep core, and pelvic floor.
The practice includes gluteal isometrics paired with thoracic mobility, hip-hinge isometrics with scapular retraction, hip internal and external rotation, and exploratory shoulder movements. We then transition to the floor for a dynamic prone pectoral stretch, followed by deep-core stability, mid-back control, and upper-back strengthening. We finish with a much-needed mid-back release, leaving your chest feeling more open, spacious, and free!
Optional props: Blanket, chair, access to a wall, bolster, 2–1 lb wrist weights, and 2- 8 lb weights.
This class is designed to help you create more space, mobility, strength, and connection throughout the shoulders, chest, upper back, hips, and core.
