MegaWatt Squats: Light Up Your Body

Squat shapes are shared by all movement disciplines, from a conventional deadlift to playground frog hops to the prima ballerina’s Grande Plie and to functional movement. Each body must navigate the ideal healthy range for their own body as it moves through stages of life and fitness. The whole body participates in squatting, but the burden of load challenges the pelvis, hips and knees in extraordinary ways. Crawl into this class to play with a range of squats to improve your own performance and comfort no matter how low you can go.

After doing the MegaWatt Squat: Light Up Your Body class, we recommend you also do the following classes from the Library:

• The Leg Stretch Series: Lying Around is Hard Work

This class is a great prep for the Squat class, and it’s also a great recovery day class to maintain accessible mobility access for all the parts of your hips.

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.
