This is a mat based class (utilizing yoga style floor mats) designed to develop functional core strength, promote correct alignment, and focusing on breath and balance. Each class will end with stretching.
The exercises will be similar to a Pilates based program, but will focus on a climber’s core strength and movement. Not only will it improve athletic performance, it help foster valuable insights about your body and your limits.
The class will be broken into beginners and intermediate/advanced. The first half hour (6:30-7 pm) will focus on beginner movement and basic form. The second half (7-7:30 pm) will move into intermediate and advanced movement.
The instructor, Anja, is a licensed physical therapist in Denmark and an active climber. She also conducts private instruction at emPower Yoga & Pilates in Roanoke.
No matter your level of comfort with yoga, Pilates, or climbing, expect a supportive atmosphere.
