The hip flexors in many people can become tight or weak due to sitting for extended periods (desk or driving) and more active practices such as running or if you have a slightly bent forward posture (ie the spine isn’t in extension when you walk). I recommend this class! Bring a couple of cushions and a rolled up blanket to this session.

20 mins: you will need the soft prickle balls for this class where I focus with you on the feet, calf muscles, thighs and shoulders.
Great to follow another class or just on its own with no mixer required! I hope you feel great after this and loosen all those tight areas.

15 minutes: this class focuses on the shoulders and neck. Myofascial release is a soft tissue release class using these soft prickle balls. Please do not use rigid spiky balls for this class. The link to purchase the prickle balls is on my blog page. They are fabulous and well worth the £14 investment.

12 minutes: Spotlight on the rollback. Polish up your technique with this first session on the rollback. Also variation for osteoporosis.

10 minutes: Spotlight on Shoulder bridge offers a pure focus on this wonderful movement that can help to re-align and maintain balance if you do it well! Always worth a revisit. This bridge is without bells and whistles but once you have the technique down to a T then you can add all the variations with confidence.

5 minutes: Your breathing can help in so many ways other than keeping you alive! The benefits include the activation of the core system including the diaphragm, deep abdominals and pelvic floor.

12 mins: if you have symptoms of irritation of the sciatic nerve or piriformis syndrome or just need to release your lower back, then this session is for you! No equipment needed. You can of course do it more than once in a day. If symptoms persist please see your GP.

15 mins: this session focuses on releasing the glutes and the hip flexors which will both have an impact on releasing the hips and the lower back. Please only use the prickle balls that I have specified. Most balls will be too hard. The link to buy these balls is on the blog page of this website. A deeply relaxing and releasing session which you can add on to the other Myofascial Release classes.

45 mins: this class is all about strengthening the glutes and the lower back – and quite frankly, most of us need this! When the glutes are stronger, it takes pressure off the ham strings and the lower back. So I recommend this class for just about everyone.
You will need the small blue ball and resistance band to benefit most from this class.

Mainly floor based.

12 mins: this is the first of my Myofascial Release classes. I suggest you doing them in order once I upload more. This short session you can add onto the end of another class or just use it in the morning or evening and let it work its magic. You will need a small blue ball deflated by about a quarter.

60 mins: join me for Yin; bring a couple of deep cushions, maybe a blanket and something perhaps for the back of the head. We are talking spine lengthening, glute stretching, back releasing. I hope you feel great after class!

25 mins: if you haven’t yet tried the foam roller why not invest in one! They make the core work harder! You can use a towel on top of the roller for additional comfort. This class will flex and extend the spine, open up the hips, work the core of course and I hope you feel great afterwards 🙂

24 minutes: this is what it says! 24 minutes to fire up your core muscles with me – sometimes they just need a little attention all to themselves and 24 minutes should do it! If you want the longer version – take the Intermediates 60 class.

35 minutes: take this blended class with Wendy moving from posture to posture with some small holds of around 4-5 breaths. Combining leg stretches with some core strength. An ideal class to get you moving and lengthened, in seated, prone and supine. Grab a cushion or block to use in seated if that works well for you.

60 minutes: take this Yin class with Wendy. This class focuses on postures which help to support the liver function. A great time of year, post the festive period, to be taking care of one of your very vital organs. Liver postures include releasing and opening the hips.
