I love that this class is so great for the shoulders, but doesn't completely forget about the legs. So many lower body classes completely neglect my shoulders that want some love too! I've been this class regularly lately- so great to work on strength and mobility!

Riding the wave of strength, stability and mobility— love that. Great class, good mix of strengthening work and restorative, rest, and stretchy type poses. Excited to try the next one.
