What is Essentrics

Essentrics is a dynamic group movement practice which focuses on lubricating and healing our connective tissue (fascia), improving posture, strengthening the muscles, and mobilizing the joints. It is zero impact, and the movements are fun and feel good.

Energy AFTER Class!

Have you ever been to a group fitness or yoga class where you just feel exhausted afterwards? This is not one of them. Students tell me they feel light and fluid for days afterwards. One student said after her first class that she would no longer fear any future hip replacements!

What To Bring

Essentrics is done in bare feet on yoga mats to music. Please bring mats, comfortable fitness clothes, and water. You can also bring a towel and low yoga block for sitting.

In order to maintain a positive and hopeful outlook in life you must:

free your body!

Essentrics Classes on the south shore of Nova Scotia

Essentrics is a full body strengthening and lengthening program which targets all of our muscles and joints in every workout. Because it focuses on eccentric movement we strengthen the muscle through stretching. There are no weights in this routine except for the natural weight of the body.

HOW IT WORKS

Each class is a pre-choreographed routine done to music. It combines essential movements from Ballet, Tai Chi, and physiotherapy. Eccentric muscle contraction stores energy in the mitochondria of the cellular matrix of our muscles, so it turns us into batteries! We leave class replenished and happy instead of exhausted. As well, there has been much scientific research into how group synchronized movement to music actually heals our bodies and nervous systems! This is where the magic of the workout really happens -we heal by moving together in unison.

I choose music that is uplifting and healing which adds to the restorative quality of my classes. Essentrics helps you get our health and bodies back to a place of vitality and youthfulness no matter what your age.
