YOGA-BARRE
Barre is a mixture of modern postural alignment theory, core activation, glute strengthening movements, leg and arm strengthening movements. You use your body weight to churn out rep after rep of muscle-burning moves. The yoga in this course will mainly be a vinyasa flow, which focuses the movement with the breath, a constant movement that allows you to build up heat as you flow. Includes intermediate yoga exercises for increased flexibility, improved health, relaxation, and reduced stress in daily living.
