Let’s Talk Twists: Rotational Body Benefits

“Now twist and detox your organs.” If I had a dollar for all the TALK SINS that I’ve squeezed out of my body while doing twists, I would be a very purged person indeed. Rotation is cleansing for your body, though likely not purifying in the way fitness culture frequently suggests. This class explores the origin of this myth and leads you through the twists and turns of your body, joint by joint, to feel how rotation fills you up rather than wrings you out.

After doing the Let’s Talk Twists: Rotational Body Benefits class, we recommend you also do the following classes from the Library:

TWISTED TRIANGLE – DO Get it Twisted

Compound your twist skills into one of the most widely practiced standing poses in the yoga canon. The Twisted Triangle class augments your learning and provides a new spin on your twisting vocabulary.

In this series of MOVE, BREATHE, ROLL – The Logical/Mythological Series, Jill focuses on common myths and misperceptions of practice that still persist in yoga and movement classrooms today. Each class tackles a myth that unrolls like a sticky mat when you filter it through anatomy, kinesiology and physiology. Join Jill on this fun myth-busting journey that also translates into other popular movement forms including pilates, CrossFit and Instagram Inspo. Each class will attempt to unpack a myth from a historical/contextual lens and take you through Tune Up Fitness movement practices that help your body to be a lab of curiosity and discovery.
