February Schedule: Week Three
There are 7 classes in this playlist. 3 stability classes, 3 Opening type classes and 1 Myofacial Release
Recommendation:
- Take 4 classes per week (more if you want!)
- If you are hypertonic - please make sure you've done at least 3 weeks of Restore Your Pelvic Floor, focusing on creating space in the pelvis and pelvic floor. Then gently add stability type of work. Pay attention to what lands well. I recommend a daily journal where you jot down what you did and how you felt. Especially in the beginning.
- Take 1-3 opening type classes and 2-3 stability (add anything else that your body is asking for)
- On days off, get on the floor! Spend 10 minutes doing moves that feel good in your body. Focus on the ones that target what you're working on. Email me if you need help figuring that out!
Don't forget to add classes to your favorites. If you take a class and it made you feel incredible, save it and come back to it again and again. I promise, it's always better then 2nd time around! Your body is already familiar with the flow and the transitions.
