This workout utilizes contemporary and classical Pilates mat work (including leg circles & a "clamshell" side-lying sequence) to help stabilize, control and stretch out your hips for Irish dance. We'll also target our hip flexors through some lower abdominal exercises. Enjoy your workout!
P.S. Have you checked out the studio lounge forum recently? Celticore intern Kendal Griffler writes a new post weekly, meant to help inspire + motivate Irish dancers! Be sure to visit often and contribute any thoughts or ideas you might have!
