Yoga Abs & core (traditional) is a practice focused on strengthening the deep muscles of the core, which are essential for stability, posture, and overall body balance. This class is based on the foundations of traditional yoga while placing particular emphasis on working the center of the body, also called the core, in order to develop a strong and lasting foundation.
Through controlled postures, slow transitions, and conscious breathing, Yoga Abs & Core engages the deep abdominal muscles, the back, and the stabilizing muscles. The work is progressive and precise, encouraging deep strengthening without sudden movements or impact.
