I was fighting with my obsessive thoughts just before this class and the band helped me at least try to resist and release them. I easily lock onto these thought patterns and can't seem to let go of them. I WILL resist and bring myself to a calmer state! This class felt so awkwardly satisfying, a calm in the storm.

So relaxing. Slowing things down and stretching at this pace is so healthy for the mind and body. Often when warming up the body and stretching its done so quickly and in a rough way. It's so nice to have the space to think in these movements and pay attention to the body. Thinking about relaxing the muscles as well as working them is also so beneficial. Thank you! My shoulders are so grateful for these moves!

Degage makes me think of the french meaning to "go away"! I also love the rond de jambe (the only ballet term I remember!), I feel nicely stretched out after PT 1 and PT 2. Craving some more ballet now!

I love your technique classes. Everything is explained in such a nice way, you really keep my focus. I wish the body was explained to me in this way when I was a child, while doing ballet/gymnastics, and for the teacher to be as gentle!

I was like what's a snack plant! Figure it's 🐍

I also really love this class. The music and flows take me somewhere happy! I really feel the self care in this one.

Second time doing this class! And like with Emily got the choreo down pat! I was hiking yesterday and can barely walk down the stairs so the side squat stretches were difficult! Love swinging a heavy weight! Feeling strong all over after this!

Cool mat! Looks like it's been hand painted!

I enjoyed the warm up, the stretches and flows felt so smooth. On the ball I wobbled so much and failed to find a good bit of wall during the class (I could have paused but was too in the zone!), so I'm going to repeat the ball exercises again until I'm completely satisfied with my efforts! My favourite ball exercise was the final one with the weight swing (it felt so good and gentle on my stiff hips). I think I'm meant to keep repeating this class because yesterday it got interrupted by my burning baked potato 😂
