CORE STRENGTH

The core or trunk muscles prepare the body for movement, providing control and stability. An active core and pelvic floor function as a corset to protect the structural integrity of the joints, primarily the pelvis and lumbar spine, before any arm or leg movement has begun. A weak core is often the culprit behind injuries that seem to occur later in life without any apparent reason. Pregnant women should also focus on core and pelvic floor stabilization during exercise as well activities of daily living because of the postural changes during pregnancy. Attention to the core muscles after pregnancy is also important for realigning the posture and development of the strength of the pelvic floor to reduce urinary incontinence.
The core class focuses on gaining power in the trunk through dynamic movement and concentrated work resulting in improved posture. The class has been developed using Pilates as well as sports conditioning techniques and ends with a complete stretch, leaving the body relaxed, and rejuvenated. A great way to have a morning out and fun too!
Friday 8:45-9:45AM        Instructor: Sharon Collins
Cost: $110

THE BALANCE AND STABILITY CLASS FOR OLDER ADULTS

The balance and stability class prepares older adults for situations where there could be a potential for falling. Information from recent research shows that strengthening the legs of older adults is the best prevention against falling, the main cause of broken bones. In this class we strengthen the legs, work on balance, and understand situations that can potentially result in a fall as well as learning tips to prevent falls in the home, where most falls occur.
