Join Maggie for her signature Hybrid Class focused on Hip Flexion!
The Hybrid class is a blend of joint mobility & strength drills offered within a yoga flow. Each Hybrid class has a particular focus so that one or a few joints will be challenged. This is a great way to teach yourself how those joints participate (or don't know how to!) in a variety of poses.
For many of us our hip flexors are tight but also weak. Let's spend some time activating them to the best of our ability and learn how we can best access these muscles. Be prepared for a challenge and more importantly to not take yourself so seriously!
**Equipment: Mat, 2 blocks, tennis/lax ball & access to a wall
About Maggie:
I've dedicated my professional life to movement systems such as Ashtanga Vinyasa Yoga and Functional Range Conditioning.
I began teaching full time in 2012. My first training was in Power Vinyasa yoga but I later found a more permanent home with Ashtanga yoga.
I began teaching Mysore style Ashtanga Yoga under the guidance of Stair Calhoun and Michael Joel Hall. I've made three extended trips to Mysore, India to study at the Sharath Jois Yoga Center (formerly KPJAYI.) Sharath Jois granted me authorization in January 2018. I am very grateful for my other yoga teachers, Annie Pace and David Garrigues.
Routinely, I take trainings that focus on joint isolation and strengthening. I believe yoga postures and joint mobilization drills allow you to participate more fully in life with less pain and more awareness. Dr. Andreo Spina's FRC and Kinstretch programs have given me a greater awareness of body mechanics.
