Description: This exercise will get your stomach and spine to work together. Connect your breath with each movement to create a cohesive, liquid feel to the movement. This was a foundation exercise in my training, which helped me find the most amount of movement in my upper body.

Class Tips

We want you super comfy with our class format (it’s a little different) so here’s a quick overview:

Pick your Style

What flavor are you after? You have access to 450+ tutorials; they're separated into (types) warm ups, exercises, and combinations. Each type can be filtered by skill level and teacher!

Preview

Super charge your preview experience throughout the site by hovering (or tapping) the 'eye' icon to view a tutorial (combination only).

Learn

Decide how you want to learn: select your view from the playlist 'slow back w/ counts' or 'slow mirrored w/ counts', once you are ready for music jump to the next view 'back w/ music' or 'mirrored w/ music'.

Replay & Skip

Chances are, you're gonna need to go over that 8-count a few more times. Use our markers and the 10-second rewind feature to your advantage (markers not always available). Bonus tip: adjust the speed of any video from the player settings.

Bookmark
