Area of Focus - Hips/Buttocks, Core
At Home Program: Level 3, Month 6 – Intro
This class develops the balance and poise needed to have a strong upright posture. Learn to breathe in three dimensions, so that you can engage your entire abdominal region for core strength. Jill then draws focus to ways the adductors support the core from below the pelvis in both long and short positions.

Strengthen and tone your midsection by engaging your breath. This is a full body class that will task you to use your breath as a skill for building strength and fostering body-mind awareness throughout balancing drills.
As you move through the class, precision in your movement is increasingly demanded. This may challenge you not only on a physical level but on a mental one as well. Learn to be present and refine all of your awareness around moving, standing, breathing, and balancing. Revolving your consciousness within the challenge of the poses helps you get to the core of an embodied movement practice. Many of the movements in this class, like garudasana squats, aw shucks, and adductor slides, target and strengthen the adductors. These strong movements require a firm commitment from you to listen and engage with whatever capacity allows you to breathe and remain calm and present.
