Dynamic stretches are a form of stretching that improves speed, agility, and acceleration. It involves the active tightening of your muscles and moving your joints through their full range of motion throughout the stretch. These functional and sport-specific movements help increase muscle temperature and decrease muscle stiffness.

Join Morwenna for 45 min to work on your flexibility, to maintain your range of movements, and to release tension in your body.

Meet the teacher!

I'm delighted to announce another amazing teacher this week.
Morwenna is going to teach our new "stretch'n'motion" class on Thursday from 7.45 - 8.30 pm .

So many of us do not get the chance to move and stretch. Maybe your work requires very repetitive movement, or not much movement at all. This 45 minute class is a chance for you to move through your full range of motion with dynamic stretching and strengthening in order to maintain your range of motion. In each class we will do some full body movement, and then focus on stretches and mobility exercises for a certain area of the body such as shoulders, hips, etc.

All levels are welcome!!!
For more information and to book your space contact 083 1068337

So thrilled to create a space where people with different skills and dance backgrounds come and share their passion for movement with us !!!

Rebekka Simon, Dance Teacher

When I was a kid I used to move to any kind of music whenever I found space to dance. My parents recognized and encouraged my passion for dance and brought me to the Palucca University of Dance Dresden, Germany (where I am from). I studied dance there for 6 years including ballet and point work, modern and contemporary dance, jazz and improvisation. During this time I worked with choreographers like John Neumeier, Birgit Scherzer and Hanne Wantke. I also performed in Swan Lake and A Midsummer Night's Dream at Semper Opera House in Dresden.


I moved to Cork city last year and recently completed the intermediate and advanced ISDT dance courses at Colaiste Stiofain Naoifa. I also joined the Cork City Ballet Youth Ensemble during my studies.
I have always had a passion for dance and the feeling of freedom while I'm moving. That's why I would like to share my love for this unique expression of and with our bodies! I would like to give anyone the opportunity to explore themselves through movement and to be at one with space, music and their own body.

“There is only one of you in all time, this expression is unique. And if you block it, it will never exist through any other medium and it will be lost.” - Martha Graham
