Corrective exercises work to restore muscle balance and joint range of motion, and improve the way your body moves. The body adapts due to lifestyle, injury, poor posture, repetitive movements, and more. This results in improper mechanics and leads to pain and breakdown. These exercises help reset your body, restore healthy movement, and reduce pain.

Full programs first look to relax and lengthen overactive muscles, secondly to strenghten underactive muscles, and lastly to teach the body how to move as a whole with every joint and muscle playing its part.

Foundation Training is a specific type of corrective exercise that focuses on decompressing the spine and torso, stabilizing the pelvis, focusing on hip-driven movements, and building the posterior chain. This translates into posture and balance improvements, strength gains, and feeling better. It consists of poses that reset the body and how it moves.

Classes start with a gentle warm-up before entering poses intended to strengthen typically underactive muscles, work core and balance, and decompress the spine and torso with attention to pose posture and use of expansive diaphragmatic breathing. Stretches for typically overactive muscles are sprinkled in and class concludes with a gentle cool-down. Varying intensity levels are offered for many poses, ranging from seated poses and gentle moves to highly muscular poses and more intensive movements for those with more experience. Participants choose the most appropriate option for their body, with form and pain-free movement being key.
