20 and 30 Minute Focus Classes

Introduction

If you haven't already, please first visit our Introduction Page, which contains some important general information you need to know before you first start classes.

Class Sections

As with all my face-to-face classes, this online class has been broken down into four sections*. It is very important that we always warm up before a class, and also to stretch at the end, in order to return our muscles to their original length, so please make sure you carry out both of these sections. Depending on how much time you have though, you can do either the balance work, floor work, or both, but please carry out the sections in the order listed.

- Warmup
- Standing balance work
- Floor work
- Stretches
(* Special 30 minute focus classes will follow bespoke formats.)

Exercise Repetitions

- Complete up to 4-8 repetitions of each exercise in the warmup, and 10-12 repetitions should be sufficient for the standing balance and floor work exercises, but more or less can be completed depending on your level of exerperience or fitness.
- Complete the moves slowly to reduce the use of momentum, keeping full control of your body as you move in both directions.
- Think about your breathing and try to breath out when the body is moving, and in when you stop.
- If any of your joints hurt, do not force the moves, stop and message or call me. Always contact me if you have any questions!

Stretching

- Hold stretches at the full range of movement for 15-30 seconds then release.
- Never 'bounce' a stretch!

OK, so let's begin. First read the guidance notes for a section, then click anywhere on the video below it to start it playing. Once finished, proceed to the next section.
