| Dear Friend ,
Looking forward to working with you this summer. In addition to my Tuesday and Friday Pilates classes, I'm offering a Wednesday course focusing on the feet and their relationship to gait, balance, stability and power:
Foot-to-Core Stability & Power (ZOOM Class)-Wed 5:30-6:30pm
With each step your
feet elastically load energy from impact like a rubber band; then release that energy upwards through your joints transferring POWER to your CORE and propelling you forward. Walking has an impact of 1-2x body weight; Running 3-4x body weight; Jumping 10x body weight. If your
feet lose the elastic ability to absorb impact and transfer forces efficiently to your core, your balance and movement ability is disrupted, you lose power, and are vulnerable to injury.- Wake-up & Strengthen Your Feet
- Walk Better, Improve Balance, Prevent Falls
- Receive Feedback & Assessment About Your Feet
- Discover How Foot-to-Core Exercises Can Increase Power & Stability.
You'll
be encouraged to do exercises in bare feet, yet you can wear shoes if
you need them. This is a MIXED-LEVEL class. I'll be offering both easy
and more challenging variations of exercises so you can participate at your own level of ability. Exercises will be done in sitting, lying, standing and walking.
PREREQUISITES:
Participants must be able to get up and down from the floor without
assistance. Please do not participate if you have an acute foot injury
or severe pain. Thanks.
KEEP ON MOVIN!
