Core Rehab Program
In Core Rehab we get really detailed about the core, experience it in action and cultivate a deeper awareness and connection with it as it relates to the pelvic floor. And of course, we start working on creating stability & strength! The TVA (transverse abdominus) and Pelvic Floor make up what I refer to as the Deep Core. They ideally work together, naturally. We also spend ample time in this program deepening our connection with pelvic breath.
How to use this playlist: Approach these classes one week at a time. Do the week one class 2X the first week and if needed repeat. Once you start feeling confident in the posture, the connection and your body is tolerating everything well and feeling stronger, move on to week two. These classes can be done in conjunction with other pelvic yoga classes. I recommend doing 2 stability (core rehab) classes and 2 opening/myofascial release/mobility classes each week.

Each week has gotten gradually more challenging. My hope i...
