Core Class - Wednesday, Oct 18

Wednesday, Oct 18, 10 am to 11:30 am
Class instructor: Dahyun Kim

'Flowing Through the Floor- Intermediate Contemporary Floorwork'
This class is a contemporary floorwork class focusing on safe navigation in and out of the floor, which in turn gives freedom in the movement. The class will consist of a warm up- including pilates based core activation as well as pulling and pushing activities, across the floor movement exercises, and phrase work inspired by the movement explored throughout the class. This is an intermediate level class with the goal of finding flow on the floor, and to unlock various pathways of movement accessible to us.
