Mobility Workout (standing & floor - 30 min.)
One of the most obvious physical signs of aging is our level of mobility. Low mobility can mean difficulty with daily tasks and movements that once seemed simple. Reduced mobility also limits us from doing some of our favorite activities. Feel and look younger by increasing your range of motion with this easy-to-follow, full-body Essentrics workout.
Bone Strengthening Workout (standing and barre - 30 min.)
As we age, our bones can become weak and brittle. This slow-paced, beginner workout will pump blood into your bones and throughout your entire body. The Essentrics technique strengthens and protects your bones through mild, yet effective, movement.
