Core work seems to be a commonly used phrase in many types of fitness programs today, but what does this exactly mean? Did you know many traditional “ab exercises” may not fully activate the core?

Join us to get deep (literally) into the topic of the core musculature, to share some exciting research and clear up some misconceptions about the mysterious core, that group of muscles in our body that we all really have…really!

We will start with a core anatomy lesson. Did you know there was an actual differentiation between the inner core and the outer core? First we will learn the anatomy of the inner core muscles and have a practical lesson on how to activate them. Then we will learn about the outer core musculature. And finally we will learn how activation of the entire core (inner and outer) strongly influences proper posture and alignment, and efficiency and safety of the body whether in a dynamic or static state.

Saving the best part for last, we will apply all of this information into a practice … so bring your mat… and some water!
