Class offerings:
1. Core Strength and Functional Exercise
Designed for individuals who would like to improve their core muscle strength, pelvic stability, spinal mobility, posture, muscle patterning and breath control. These classes will cover all of the components that are often missed with traditional aerobic and resistance training, ensuring a well-rounded approach to physical activity or acting as preparation for more high impact training. Vanessa will guide particpaints through a series of exercises focusing on mobility, muscle activation and sequencing, trunk control, pelvic stability and recovery techniques. Equipment, such as resistance bands, foam rollers, exercise balls and trigger release balls will be utilised.
2. General Conditioning
Designed for participants seeking to improve their muscle strength, balance, muscle and joint flexibility, general well-being and posture in a safe and supervised setting, with the added benefit of healthy social interaction. These classes can also be tailored to your unique needs and goals, such as weight management or pain reduction. Modifications to each exercise will be offered to ensure the classes are inclusive of all abilities. Although low impact, resistance in the form of light weights and exercise bands will also be incorporated for added challenge.
