The tightness of the neck and shoulders makes it hard to breathe, dulls sensation in all other parts of the body, and thereby dampens our ability to feel pleasure.

This is THE workshop to learn how to unravel the years, perhaps decades, of tension that have accumulated in your upper body, liberating you to feel more ease and joy. Using functional movement to mobilize, deep breathing to activate feeling, Pilates for alignment and the magic of Forrest yoga’s “release your neck” technique to dissolve tension, you will learn to free up your tight spots and come alive in your whole body.

* The room will be gently heated to generate a cleansing sweat!

Looking to build speed and power? Need to work through knee and ankle issues?

The benefits of our Cardio Jumpboard class are wide-ranging and amazing! You’ll feel the burn in both your arms and legs, develop power and speed, improve overall coordination and elevate your heart rate more than any other Pilates Class. It will expand your Pilates practice by challenging you in different positions: lying on your back and side, kneeling facing the front, back and side, and many more physique toning movements.

Plus, it’s easy and so much fun!

Our 60 minute Cardio Reformer Jumpboard class is the perfect way to incorporate cardio work into your Pilates routine—and the best way to start your day. The jumpboard fastens to the end of the reformer adding a cardio component to a reformer class while seriously burning calories. This creatively choreographed workout is easy, fun and effective—plus, the impact on your knees and hip joints is minimal due to the spring resistance used with reformer and the principles of Pilates. It’s a great low impact alternative for a cardio workout while strengthening and stabilizing too!
