Core Stability & Flexibility Classes

There are many common misconceptions about the “core” even among fitness professionals, most of whom may think that the core is simply the abdominals, aka “6-pack.” However, the core is much more than that. The core is the center of our body and it functions to stabilize the trunk while the limbs are in functional movements. When we view it this way, we see that the core actually includes:

  • Muscles that stabilize the hips
  • The system of muscles that make up the torso
  • Muscles that stabilize the shoulders

Stretching on the other hand may not be the most exciting part of working out, but doing flexibility work is just as important for a well-rounded fitness routine as core stability, strength and cardio work. We incorporate stretching and core strengthening exercises in one overall package ensuring your physical well-being improve noticeably. Phease note these classes are designated for Saturdays and Sundays and must be booked in advance. For further information, contact Sensei Orang.

Women's Self Defense Group

Many women have been conditioned to ignore the little voice that tells them trouble is coming. Your instinct is the best detector of danger. The next time you hear that little voice, listen to what it’s saying! We will teach you simple, practical yet effective techniques to surprise and stop an attacker without filling your head with false sense of security.

  • Stay alert / trust your instincts
  • Practice Target Denial
  • Practice Preemptive attacks

Although most women’s self-defense courses focus on skills for quickly and efficiently destroying an attacker, we believe self-defense training also should include methods for preventing a confrontation from turning physical in the first place. Learning how to steer away from a threat may not sound as exciting as ripping out an attacker’s heart, but as it is said in every beginner’s class, evading an attack is almost always superior to blocking an attack. These classes are strictly for 17 years+, designated for Saturdays and Sundays and by prior booking only. For further information, contact Sensei Orang.
