LEARN HOW TO GET UP OFF THE FLOOR BY INCREASING YOUR STRENGTH, FLEXIBILITY AND IMPROVING YOUR BODY MECHANICS

It’s Interesting to know that what is needed to stay on your feet and to get up off the floor are just about the same things:

good balance

flexibility

strength

good functioning body mechanics

This will not be a lecture but a "hands on" class to learn how to better get up off the floor. Be prepared to move, so wearing comfortable clothing is a must. Classes will be held in the gym where each participant will be given appropriate for his/her level strength building and movement exercises to be done in class and at home in order to increase strength, flexibility, range of movement and body mechanics.

This initial series of classes will be geared to people who are unable to get up off the floor or who are having difficulty doing it.

Class size will be limited and will be 1 hr. in length for 4 sessions and will start on February 19th. at 2:00.

The cost of this initial series of classes will be by donation only. Proceeds will go to support the Roots/Healing Circles program.
