Sunday, January 5 @ 2:00-4:00PM Functional Range Conditioning for the Yogi - $35
Kinstretch is part on the Functional Range Conditioning system that works to improve joint health, mobility, and control. It involved exercises that increase functional range of motion, meaning flexibility that is supported by strength. This kind of training is imperative to maintaining a healthy body as we age. Gianna is a FRCms trained in Kinstretch and a veteran yoga teacher with over 16 years of movement coaching. She combines the science backed system of Functional Range Conditioning with the vedic science of the hatha yoga system to help yoga practitioners move in the most healthful way. Over the course of 2 hours you will train your body to better explore your favorite positions.
