This 3 week session can give you the tools you need to set healthy habits at home that are wonderful for physical and mental health. Bring a cup of your favorite lemon water, boba, or tea. Not required, but feel free to bring a stretching mat and / or stretching block (blocks can help make stretches deeper, we will have some blocks available to borrow if you are interested).
Stretch and Sip is a fusion of pilates basics, active stre96tching, and some of our favorite dance warm ups set to relaxing and feel good music, with an occasional upbeat hit to get our hearts going. Refreshments are not provided. We ask that everyone leave their refreshments off the dance floor, in a designated area, to prevent spilling, however, we will take many sip breaks throughout the session.
