About the course

When you're suspended in the air, the thing you need to build from for strength, stability, and movement is your core.

This class explores the point where all of our aerial movement begins and helps you understand the biomechanics and sequence of your trunk muscles and hip joints.

You will be able to build functional strength and flexibility, deepen your splits and straddles, invert with more ease and grace, and prevent common hip injuries and back pain.
