Move Better, Feel Better, Get Fitter!
Everyone moves. Not everyone exercises. If moving hurts, you will move less and exercise will be more difficult than it needs to be. Discover how your everyday movements can promote higher movement quality to help you feel better in your body in and out of your workouts. Effective exercise is just quality human movement performed at an intensity that causes a change in the body. This workshop shows you how to move better so you feel better no matter what you do!
