Stretch Class
A total body stretch class is great for relaxing and lengthening muscles as well as preparing for your day/performance. Class will begin with easy movement to get the blood flowing (to make stretching easier)and will then move to deeper stretching working larger then smaller muscle groups. Not flexible? Not a problem. Options will be given for all levels. Yoga mat/towel recommended (especially for the less flexible),but not necessary.
