Mobility classes are geared toward athletes wanting a more therapeutic practice focusing on self myofascial release (SMR). Some yoga poses may be incorporated to increase joint range of motion (ROM), but props such as therapy balls will be the focus during this practice. This class is an excellent supplement to your training program. Be prepared for a deep tissue massage and soft tissue manipulation experience.
Our mobility classes focus on myofascial release through the focus of neural, muscular, and fascial systems in the body that can be negatively influenced by poor posture, repetitive motions, or dysfunctional movements. Using therapy balls, we will apply gentle force to “knots” in the muscle fibers to encourage straight alignment toward the direction of the muscle or fascia. We will offer you the proper techniques to manipulate the tissues to the spot of sweet relief.
Pairing our SMR classes with your workout regimen will deliver improvements in flexibility, muscle recovery, movement efficiency, inhibition of overactive muscles and pain reduction, with just minutes of application. Which is why all the classes are less than 30 minutes!
Our goal is to restore optimal muscle movement and function. These mobility classes will produce positive feel good results.
