LOWER BODY


  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    You may know you need to improve your hip extension and you may be working on that. But how strong are your hip flexors? Can you lift your leg?
    Equipment Needed:
    Stool (or chair seat), Foam Roller, Half Dome, Strap, Red Squishy Ball, Pool Noodle (or rolled mat or towel)
    * Warning: May cause soreness

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    An exploration of a variety of positions, for both work and rest, that you can use when you work at a low table, or garden, or clean the boat, or whatever! Play with it. Move more. Have fun and feel GOOD!
    Equipment Needed:
    2 Bolsters, Half Dome, 2 Blankets, Strap (maybe more or less stuff depending on your bolstering needs)

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    Foot mobility and ankle range of motion are important for walking on a variety of terrain and inclines. Lack of dorsiflexion of the ankle and foot immobility can contribute to foot, ankle, knee, and hip issues…cuz it’s all connected. So let’s get those pieces loosened up!
    Equipment Needed:
    Half Dome, Strap, YTU or Tennis Ball

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    Let’s go thru a multitude of variations on the Figure 4, from floor to seated/bolstered to standing. Groovy hip opening and lateral hip strength work.
    Equipment Needed:
    Bolster, 1/2 Dome, maybe a block, blanket, chair, counter

  • Instructor:
    Tim Harris
    Description:
    Another flow series! Using breath and continuity of movement, you will be led through a series of exercises focusing on external rotation, pelvic list, and balance. Note: At the beginning of the Bosu section, you can use a bolster, stacked pillows or blankets, or your block, to place your knee on. During the two-legged balance portion, if you do not have a Bosu, you can use an inflatable balance disk or 2 half domes flat side up…or just do single leg balance on your half dome (flat side up). Take extra care if attempting the stand on the Bosu flat side up- sometimes a friend’s hand is helpful for getting on and off.
    Equipment Needed:
    Half Dome, Block, maybe a Bosu or inflatable balance disk (if you have one. If not, your half dome, flat side up, will work just fine.)
    *The video “Note” demonstrates use of the balance disk.

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    The feet are our foundation. And they are tight (for most of us). Tight feet affect everything that sits on top of them. We’ll spend some quality time restoring some of the length to the muscles of the feet and lower legs.
    Equipment Needed:
    1/2 Dome, Tennis Ball (or therapy or YTU ball), maybe a Blanket, maybe a Bolster

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    Many of will find that once the femur is neutral (neutral kneepits), this reveals the tension in our feet. We will work on restoring mobility within the foot so that by the end of this class, your ability to evert the forefoot (getting the ball of your foot flat on the ground, or closer to it) will be better.
    Equipment Needed:
    Bolster, Half Dome, Strap, YTU ball or tennis ball…

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    This class will involve gentle exercises to help improve mobility of the pelvic joints- hips and lumbar spine.
    Equipment Needed:
    Bolster, Half Dome, Red Squishy Ball, (2) Straps

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    A general, all-around hip opening class to gain more freedom of movement about the largest joints in your body.
    Equipment Needed:
    Bolster, Block, Yoga Block, Yoga Strap, Tennis Ball

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    We’ll be playing with and observing knee and hip stability. What does it take? How is yours? What do you need to do to stabilize? This series will help you create some awareness for how you move up and down steps (stairs, curbs, etc.) throughout your day and what you can work on to fill in your strength gaps.
    Equipment Needed:
    Bolster, Half Dome, Strap, Foam Roller, and something to step up onto (stack of blocks, hardcover books, step stool)

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    How strong are your legs? Not “how much weight can you lift or push” but “can your legs move YOU?” Let’s see…
    Equipment Needed:
    Bolster, Half Dome, Strap, Monster Band, 2 Blankets (maybe other bolsters depending on your hip and knee mobility)
    Note: We had a foam roller out that we didn’t end up using. An awesome exercise you can use it for is to do the “splits” on the roller: Front calf on the roller, back knee on floor. Square up your pelvis towards the roller. Gradually roll the roller away from you- repositioning it towards the ankle as necessary- as you go deeper into the “splits” (might not look anything like the splits) to get a great stretch in the hamstrings of the front leg and hip flexors of the back leg, and a bonus rolling on the calf on the roller. So good.

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    How is your single leg balance? If you said not great, or ok, then your ability to walk without falling is just “not great, or ok”. We’ll work on hip strength, hip extension, lower leg tension, and hip opening. All good for making our walking healthier for our hips.
    Equipment Needed:
    Bolster, Half Dome, Large Block (or hard cover book)
    * Note: This class includes a brief discussion on dogs and dog training… it’s brief

  • Instructor:
    Tim Harris
    Description:
    To be able to walk most efficiently (getting the most benefit and doing the least damage), we need to be able to do this thing called “posterior push-off” (among other things) which requires hip extension (among other things). Opening up the largest joint in your body (your hip) -working specifically on hip extension- will increase your body’s ability to push back further, but maybe more importantly, you’ll get a chance to see what your true hip extension looks like.
    Equipment Needed:
    1/2 Dome, Block, Strap

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    The pelvic (hip) list is the first thing that should happen for us to take a step, but most of us don’t have the strength in our lateral hips to support our own body weight. This progression will not only get you really working these muscles, but help you work them better by using a variety of “tricks”.
    Equipment Needed:
    1/2 Dome, Block, 12” long Block (or maybe a book)

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    Our tight hip flexors inhibit both full extension of the hip (think leg going back behind you when you walk) and full hip flexion. This class will give you a chance to spend time both in flexion and working on releasing in extension – both of which will help further your progress of moving through your well- aligned squat.
    Equipment Needed:
    Half Dome, Strap (maybe 2), Block, Bolster, maybe a second Half Domes or rolled up yoga mat
    *Please excuse the headless instructor for the first 30 seconds

  • Instructor:
    Michael Kaffel
    Description:
    Let’s check out the coveted motor skill of hip extension. Do you have it? What’s limiting your hip extension? How do YOU get your leg behind you when you walk?
    Equipment:
    Needed: Bolster, 1/2 Dome, Block, Strap

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    Let’s challenge those glutes & hips & legs!

    1/2 Dome, Block, 12” long Block (or maybe a book)

  • Instructor:
    Tim Harris
    Description:
    This class will take place mostly on the floor, and we’ll be working the muscles around the thigh, both to lengthen and strengthen. You’ll be checking in with quads, hamstrings, inner thigh, and lateral hips.
    Equipment Needed:
    Half Dome, Strap, Block

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    Time to work the back side of the legs! We should all be using our posterior leg muscles when walking. This class will help you discover how much or how little strength you have back there.
    Equipment Needed:
    1/2 Dome, Yoga Strap, maybe a chair or firm foam roller

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    Are you a rib thruster? If you are (or used to be) you might have a fair amount of tension around the lower end of the thoracic spine (T12 area)/upper part of the lumbar spine. So, while you are working on “dropping the ribs” they might still need some “ramping”, and that tension may be getting in the way. This class is mostly easing of that area to improve mobility and the natural “ramping” of the ribcage.
    Equipment Needed:
    Bolster, Half Dome, Blanket, Red Squishy Ball

UPPER BODY


  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    Lots of chest opening and shoulder range of motion exercises. (I tried really hard to make sure I was on camera for the one at the wall- and really thought I was. So, check out the attached video for specifics on that awesome chest opener.)
    Equipment Needed:
    Bolster, Half Dome, Strap

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    Do you have an egghole? This is a great test. When your shoulder joint is aligned appropriately, you should have a little divot in your armpit, about the size of an egg. If you don’t, this is an area that needs to be addressed. This class will address the “egghole” and how to test for it.
    Equipment Needed:
    1/2 Dome, Bolster, Strap with Door Attachment or a doorway

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    Really focusing on motion AT the shoulder joint (versus movement OF the shoulder joint) we’ll look at not only the passive range of motion, but also the strength to move about the joint, and opening up the musculature that might be inhibiting some of the motion.
    Equipment Needed:
    Half Dome, (2) Blocks, Blanket, YTU balls (or tennis balls or pinkie balls)

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    A reprise of the anti-hyperkyphosis series with a look at not only mobilizing the t-spine (thoracic spine) but also being more aware of our posture throughout the day to create new adaptations for the spine and supporting musculature. Just can’t get enough of this stuff!
    Equipment Needed:
    Bolster, Blanket, Half Dome

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    Tight hands usually goes along with neck tension. If you spend considerable time at a computer or doing focused handwork, or simply have some degree of hyperkyphosis and/or internally rotated arms, this class will help unwind the tension from your neck all the way down to your fingertips.
    Equipment Needed:
    Half Dome, Bolster, Light Weight (3-5lbs)

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    Oh my. This will be amazing if you have any neck tension, hyperkyphosis (extra forward curve in your upper spine), or work at a desk or on a computer. You’ll gain mobility and release a ton of tension.
    Equipment Needed:
    Half Dome, Block, Pair of YTU balls or tennis balls in a sock

  • Instructor:
    Michael Kaffel
    Description:
    Let’s dig in deep to our hyperkyphosis and explore our actual shoulder motion, shall we?
    Equipment Needed:
    Bolster, 1/2 Dome, Block, light weights (or small canned goods)
    * Sorry about the “tap, tap, tapping”…we have a bird that is in love with him or herself. We think he is sending us a message in Morse code. If you can decipher the code, please let us know. It is likely a universal message to humanity and could likely save the world. Unfortunately, none of know Morse code.

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    If you use your hands daily, you might find there is tension in the hands and arms. This tension can translate up to the neck and shoulders. We’ll work on hand mobility and stretching and mobilizing the wrists and forearms and we’ll play with bolstering of the hands and wrists.
    Equipment Needed:
    Bolster, Ball (YTU or tennis ball), table or stack of blocks.

  • “Ouch That Hurts” or “I Didn’t Know I Had Muscles There”
    Instructor:
    Michael Kaffel
    Description:
    You’re gonna love this. Using the tennis balls, you’ll have a chance to explore ALL around the shoulder joints…discovering muscles you didn’t even know you had. This class finishes with a lovely pass down the spine from neck to shoulder blades.
    Equipment Needed:
    Blanket, Half Dome, 2 Tennis Balls in a sock, Bolster

  • Instructor:
    Michael Kaffel
    Description:
    Due to all the stuff we do with our arms out in front of us (driving, computers), many of us have developed a really tight chest and shoulders, and hyperkyphosis of the thoracic spine. This class will help to mobilize the shoulders and thoracic spine and help to restore the stability of the scapulae.
    Equipment Needed:
    Half Dome, Block, Bolster, Elastic Tubing (light resistance, preferably with flexible handles)

  • Instructor:
    Michael Kaffel
    Description:
    Due to all the stuff we do with our arms out in front of us (driving, computers), many of us have developed a really tight chest and shoulders, and hyperkyphosis of the thoracic spine. This class will help to mobilize the shoulders and thoracic spine and help to restore the stability of the scapulae. (This class is a replay from a few years ago…enjoy!)
    Equipment Needed:
    Half Dome, Block, Bolster, Elastic Tubing (light resistance, preferably with flexible handles)

  • Instructor:
    Joan Allen
    Description:
    You probably have some hyperkyposis- more forward curvature of your upper (thoracic) spine- than is ideal. Join the club. Enjoy this series (with before and after evaluation) that will magically reduce your hyperkyphosis. Repeat this often for best results!
    Equipment Needed:
    1/2 Dome, Block, Bolster, Foam Roll, Yellow Tube with handles

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    Strength requires muscles that lengthen or yield. If you have a muscle that is in a chronically short- or long- position, it can’t generate force and thus is “weak”. We need muscles that have the ability to contract (shorten) and relax (lengthen). In this class we’ll go back and forth between lengthening stretches and strengthening exercises. Yee haw!
    Equipment Needed:
    Bolster, ½ Dome, & something else like another ½ dome, or strap, or block

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    A delicious opportunity to release those tight neck muscles (and rhomboids, chest, and forearm) and improve mobility of the thoracic spine.

    Equipment Needed:
    Half Dome, Block, Strap, Yellow Tube with Handles

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    Muscular strength requires appropriate muscle length. To prepare for some weight bearing and increased resistance, we will first work on opening up around the shoulder joint, and then gradually increase the workload for the upper body, finishing with lovely forearm stretches.
    Equipment Needed:
    Half Dome, Block, Elastic Tubing (light resistance, preferably with flexible handles), Light Weight, Foam Roller

  • Instructor:
    Tim Harris
    Description:
    Oh, Shoulder Mobility. We need it to be able to use our arms efficiently- for hanging and swinging, to assist with breathing, to help support our pelvis, and keep good circulation to our head and hands. This’ll be a challenging one that will help so much with improving range of motion and mobility about the shoulders.
    Equipment Needed:
    (2) Half Domes, (2) Blocks, Strap

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    As the name implies, this is a challenging class that will work the upper body…you may be sore tomorrow. That’s not a bad thing. Enjoy and repeat. The “Roll Out the Tension: Upper Back & Shoulders” class is a great prep or follow-up to this class.
    Equipment Needed:
    Half Dome, Strap, Bolster, Elastic Tubing (light resistance, preferably with flexible handles)

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    We will work on increasing range of motion about the shoulder joint, and well as scapular (shoulderblade) stabilization and length of the pectoral (chest) muscles. Bonus: a trick your kids will love!
    Equipment Needed:
    Foam Roller, Half Dome, Block, Bolster, Elastic Tubing (light resistance, preferably with flexible handles)

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    Many of us have tight and immobile chest and shoulder muscles and use the entire neck and shoulder girdle to move our arms around and we don’t have the ability (mobility) to actually move our arms at the glenohumeral (shoulder) joint. This class will help you discover- and release- the tension that is hindering appropriate movement of the shoulder and causing unnecessary wear at the joint.
    Equipment Needed:
    Bolster, 1/2 Dome, Block, 2 Straps or a 10ft strap

  • Instructor:
    Tim Harris
    Description:
    This class will address the neck and its relationship to the rest of the body that it sits on top of.
    Equipment Needed:
    Half Dome, Block

  • Instructor:
    Michael Kaffel
    Description:
    From our BEACH Ball series, this class doesn’t actually use a ball, because YOU will be the ball. Great deep core work.
    Equipment Needed:
    Bolster, Yoga Block, 1/2 Dome, Yoga Strap

  • Instructor:
    Michael Kaffel
    Description:
    Core muscles are required for balance. They should be able to handle dynamic loads. This class includes a progression of balance exercises on the ball, plenty of twisting, some hip opening…and lots of fun!
    Equipment Needed:
    Large Exercise Ball, Half Dome
    *Be careful with the balance exercises in this class! 

  • Instructor:
    Michael Kaffel
    Description:
    Using the large exercise ball, you will get some great core, hamstring, and balance work. And of course, lots of fun!
    Equipment Needed:
    Large Exercise Ball, Half Dome, Wall
    * Be careful with the balance exercises on the ball in this class! Attempt at your own risk, and please be safe (move into an open space, preferable cushioned).

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    When we think of core strength, we don’t always consider the mobility of the individual ribs or the thoracic spine, but everything’s connected and the “stickiness” of these areas will affect how the core muscles work. So we’ll work on unsticking and lubing up these areas.
    Equipment Needed:
    Bolster, Half Dome, Strap, Blanket

  • Instructor:
    Joan Allen
    Description:
    A full core workout- active, reflexive, stretching, relaxing (just a little). This class will get your core moving in ways it might never have!
    Equipment Needed:

    Equipment Needed:
    1/2 Dome, Block

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    In this class we will explore shoulder range of motion and hyperkyphosis and their relationship to core strength. To support your weight- either on your hands or hanging from them- you need thoracic mobility and the ability to stabilize your ribcage, i.e. core strength. This class will help you become aware of tensions that might be preventing you from moving through various ranges of motion required for hanging or supported body weight exercises.
    Equipment Needed:
    Bolster, Half Dome, (2) Straps. Light Weight (1 or 2 lbs)
    * Note: If you have diastasis recti, be mindful of the integrity of the abdominal wall and work within the parameters of your boundaries.

  • Instructor:
    Michael Kaffel
    Description:
    What about the tucking? When should my pelvis be in neutral and when should I tuck? Wait…sometimes I should tuck???
    Equipment Needed:
    1/2 Dome, Block, Bolster

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    The ability for your transverse abdominal (TVA) muscles to be active is dependent on the position of the bones they are attached to- your ribs and your pelvis. We will go thru a series of evaluations and exercises to find neutral ribs and pelvis and work on activation of the deepest core muscles – your TVA.
    Equipment Needed:
    *Note: Please excuse the lack of the teacher’s head for a few shots in this video.

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    When we have a habit of sucking in the belly, we affect the pressures in the abdominal and thoracic cavities. This class will help you see how much or how little activity you have in your deep abdominals and how to change how you move your body to improve or prevent diastasis recti.
    Equipment Needed:
    Block, Half Dome, Bolster, Strap

WHOLE BODY

    Large Exercise Ball, Half Dome, Strap, Bolster
    *As usual, take care with the balance exercises in this class!

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    We haven’t done a class with the large ball in awhile, so this was fun! This class focuses quite a bit on spinal mobility and separating the motion of the pelvis from the ribcage- getting better at moving them independently from each other.
    Equipment Needed:
    Large Exercise Ball, Red Squishy Ball, Half Dome, Blanket

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    This class will use the “Waitress/Waiter” exercise to evaluate the external rotation of your shoulders. Lots of chest opening, shoulder mobility, and scapular stabilization.
    Equipment Needed:
    Block, Bolster, Half Dome, Blanket, Yellow Tube with handles and an attachment point.
    Note: We lost the last couple minutes of the video, so here’s basically what we did: finish the unwinding, add in wide scapulae, then re-check your external rotation in the Waitress. Voilá! Amazing right?

  • Instructor:
    Tim Harris
    Description:
    Using breath and continuity of movement, you will be led through a series of exercises focusing especially on the feet, spine, hips, and shoulders (ya, it’s pretty much everything).
    Equipment Needed:
    Maybe a Half Dome, Block, or other bolster item
    * Note: This class may challenge you a bit, so transition carefully and work within YOUR boundaries. If you have a hip or knee replacement, you may need to take extra care and modify or skip some of the movements on that side.

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    For many of us, due to our lifestyles, we have a tendency to practice postures that shorten the musculature down the entire length of the posterior (rear side) of our bodies. From our necks, to our low backs, to the length of the musculature down the backs of our legs, we have a lot of tension back there! This hour will give those muscles some much-needed lengthening and possibly bring some awareness to these areas as you go through your day and cycle through your habitual postures.
    Equipment Needed:
    Half Dome, Block, Bolster, Strap, 2 tennis balls in a sock
    *We had some technical difficulties with the camera angle, so please excuse my cut off head…fortunately, it’s not necessary for the instructor to have a head to follow along with these exercises.

  • Instructor:
    Breena Maggio
    Description:
    For a mobile spine, we need abdominal muscles that work all the way from the bottom to the top and from the deeper layers to the more superficial layers. We tend to move the spine in big chunks. In this class we’ll tease apart some of these pieces for greater mobility and ease of movement.
    Equipment Needed:
    Bolster, Half Dome, Block, Red Squishy Ball
