MOVE Livestream Class Descriptions

Pilates

GENTLE: These classes practice the foundational principles of Pilates needed to build the foundation for a successful Pilates experience. Clients will practice the principles using modifications and at a pace appropriate for their postural and health issues. Classes might be focused on balance or mobility so that they gain an understanding of their body and begin a gentle exploration of correct movement – with particular emphasis on breath control, abdominal support, and pelvic/spinal alignment. It is suitable for those who have done some Pilates and for those with injuries or issues that need a deliberate-paced class. Please discuss injuries with us before class.

LEVEL 1: This is for people who have done some Pilates and for those who want to continue to work at a moderate pace. We introduce all of the Beginner level exercises and explore in more detail how to use the breath to stabilize and mobilize the body, gaining much greater control and power.

At this level clients will experience a well-rounded workout with emphasis on increased coordination, breath capacity, precise control, concentration and “moving from your center”. Clients will also be introduced to the Pilates vocabulary and the names of each exercise to become more familiar and at ease with their practice of the full beginner exercise repertoire communicating principles of alignment, abdominal engagement, mobilization of spine, hips and pelvis. Safely challenging the body using all planes of motion in all relationships to gravity (i.e. flexion, extension, lateral rotation and lateral flexion).

LEVEL 2: Building on the basics, the full beginner repertoire is taught at a pace that will encourage flow and control while building endurance and strength. Intermediate principles and exercises are layered into the workout including weight bearing on arms, more complex movements, and larger ranges of motion with stability and balance challenges.

LEVEL 3: The full Intermediate repertoire is taught and clients are able to apply the principles of alignment and abdominal engagement to safely challenge the body.

ADVANCED:  The full Advanced repertoire is taught and clients are able to apply the principles of precision, control and fluidity to safely challenge the body. This is for experienced clients who are now honing more powerful pelvic and shoulder stability, oppositional energy, spinal articulation and overall strength. Please check with MOVE staff before attending this class.

GYROKINESIS Method

Gentle: GYROKINESIS® class falls under the larger umbrella of GYROTONIC® Expansion System. Both the Gyrokinesis and Gyrotonic methods derived and evolved in part from yoga, Tai Chi, dance, gymnastics, and swimming, although it is different from any of these. In this technique, great emphasis is placed on increasing the mobility of the spine through a specific “yawning” quality of movement. Movements are continuous and fluid often with circular or figure eight patterns. Gyrokinesis work helps mobilize and create space in all the joints of the body while increasing strength and stamina. Gentle GYROKINESIS is taught at a slower pace that is appropriate for beginners and those new to the movements as well as those with restrictions. 

LEVEL 1: In this class we’ll take the 60 minute format as a jumping off point to play with various aspects of the GYROKINESIS®️ material. We’ll release the stress and tension of the week and energize.

Yoga

This class moves at a slow to moderate pace, introducing traditional yoga concepts in a format that is clear and easy to understand. Practice poses with an emphasis on breathing, physical awareness and relaxation, which will allow you to increase strength & flexibility while relieving stress.

Fascial Movement

Using the latest science on fascial connections and muscle strength, this class teaches movements that lengthen and strengthen the connective tissue (aka fascia) throughout your body. Our fascial movement class also focuses on educating participants on anatomy basics to help you understand your unique body and how it works as a unit. If you have aches and pains and want a deeper understadning of your body then this class is for you!

This class is appropriate for all levels of fitness.

Props needed: mat, Franklin™ orange balls or small round hand weights or tightly rolled socks or handtowels, theraband.

Barre

A high-energy and dynamic class that integrates elements of Pilates, dance, cardio & strength training using the ballet barre, light weights and various props. Our Barre classes emphasize the correct postural and alignment principles combined with music to increase strength, flexibility, stamina and dynamic stability. 

Pilates Chair Class

Using principles of Pilates and yoga, this class will begin seated in a chair and move to standing at the barre, focusing on maintaining mobility and strength while improving balance. Ideal for clients who are looking for a way to prevent injuries and falls or those recovering from injury
