STRETCH. BALANCE & FLEX - Low Impact Gentle Workout

Each week we focus on specific balance activities to activate the core and improve our equilibrium such as `clock` work, `tight rope`, `flamingo stand` and `superman`.  

We strengthen muscle groups with different `flex` activities - you may want to use light hand weights for this. A chair is an essential tool...

Finally we devote time to stretching out those muscles to increase flexibility, improve circulation, eliminate tightness and (most importantly) for relaxation. 

The perfect FUN & EFFECTIVE way to start your Friday....

Join Rebecca virtually for 30 minutes of gentle low impact exercise that incorporates balance work, flexibility and strength.  There will be an opportunity to often use weights - but if you don`t have any, experiment by using cans from your cupboard! 

Great for all abilities!

£5 But REMEMBER YOU CAN JOIN UNLIMITED VIRTUAL SESSIONS + UNLIMITED WALKS PER WEEK FOR £28 PER MONTH

Walk Description:

The Smovey is not simply a weight that you swing as you walk – this clever little device contains steel balls that move when you do and this has THREE amazing effects. First it increases your range of movement and secondly, it provides resistance which makes the Smovey feel heavier at some points as you swing it – and if that’s not enough….the Smovey also VIBRATES with every swing which increases the toning and energising effects. 

With Smovey, many exercises are possible that help to strengthen the muscles, mobilise the joints, increase coordination and stabilisation and increase the heart rate. The Smovey is the must-have exercise tool.
