If you have an office job or drive often, chances are your hips and lower body are tight. To help you avoid injuries, Instructor Ken shows you two great stretches that will allow your muscles to breathe. Join Ken in his Stretch & Roll class, and get into a regular stretch routine!
The push up is one of the best exercises you can do to build your chest, shoulders, arms, and core. Instructor Jesse shows you how to do it right and get the most out of your workouts. Let him help you get the body you want by working out in his Power Body class

Do you feel tightness and tension in your head, neck, shoulders, back, legs or knees? Chances are you can alleviate a lot of it by working on your fascia.
An essential part of any yoga practice is forward bends and back bends. We all want a healthy spine and to avoid back pain, and bends are an awesome way to achieve it.
During your warm up, your yoga instructor may have you go into some easier bends, like cobra or even child’s pose, and all those are to warm up your body for the more intense back bends, after the standing and balancing poses.
Fitness should be fun, and Instructor Vanessa delivers it by showing you the cha-cha with a turn. Practice it and put it to use by working out with her in On The Floor.
The burpee is one of the best calorie-burning exercises around, but doing the same old burpee can get stale. Instructor Fernando Capeletti shows you a cool modification - the Burpee Punch. If you want a great cardio work out from home, join his Cardio Kickboxing class.
We all could use new exercises to challenge our core and strengthen our upper body right? Instructor Jesse Thomas shows us a cool new exercise here. Try it at home and if you really want to get fit, let him work you out in his Power Body class.
So you’ve warmed up with some breathing, downward facing dogs, and sun salutations. Then you’ve moved into the standing poses, which is the meat and potatoes (or tofu and kale, if you’re a vegetarian) of your yoga practice. Your heart rate is up, your body is warm, and you’re feeling great all over.
If you have ever taken my Balletone class, have you wondered why every warm up start with these weird foot exercises? The reason is because the foot is one of the most important body parts when going through any fitness regimen or workout.

Did you ever leave a yoga class and think “Wow, that was perfect—I got everything I wanted!” If a yoga class has been taught by a well-rounded and experienced instructor, you should be leaving that yoga class feeling complete, like you have worked out every part of your body in a balanced way.
