Stretch & Strengthen

We incorporate a lovely ‘Stretch & Strengthen’ in our Majestic Movers classes.

This part of our class is a very important aspect, it is a standing yoga based flow of moves.  We guide people through a sequence from head to toe, stretching and holding whilst pressing into the floor with our feet.  We move from the neck, down through the body, the shoulders, arms, hands, abs, glutes and into the feet.

The stretching and releasing helps to cool down the muscles to prevent injury.  It keeps us supple and toned throughout the body, improving circulation and balance.

Regular dance helps keep the ligaments and tendons healthy and stretched which is vital for a supple body to carry out daily tasks and strengthening the bones as we age.  When we finish there is a wonderful sense of wellbeing.
