Flexibility

The purpose of this class is to make significant improvements in the skaters range of motion in all joints. With a greater range of movement, skaters have shown a greater capacity to perform more difficult skills which improves overall extension of body line, shape and amplitude. Instructors take skaters through a varied warm up, and focus on flexibility of back, arms, legs, trunk, and shoulders. Specific needs will be identified and worked on to improve specific individual needs within the class setting.
