I like to do about 10 minutes of tissue care before I teach a class. My morning ritual also includes drinking tea and listening to a meditation while I practice tissue care. My evening tissue care before my class typically includes listening to Taylor Swift. Clean is my current favorite song. Am I a Swiftie? Maybe?
We practice movements. Once we are stable in the movements with good form then we add load. This is self care and honoring our bodies.
If you are wanting to invest in your health and start fitness training, I encourage you to start now rather than waiting for the new year. Right now is a wonderful time of the year to begin a regular practice of self care by establishing a fitness routine. Then you are already in a habit of carving out time for yourself before the holidays arrive. You are worthy of investing in yourself 💫

I am creating choreography on this rainy day for BLAZE. I will teach this during cool-down and break down the moves over a few weeks so it’s not overwhelming. We have fun on Wednesdays and we’d love you to join us!
