YOGA Sculpt / BODY Sculpt
Yoga Sculpt is a relatively new style of movement aimed at toning the body, building a lean muscle mass with the benefit of stretching of yoga poses. It is more of exercise class than yoga, to strengthen the muscles, develop small muscles that are rarely worked out in other movement classes, and toning the whole body. Bodyweight can be used, or small weights can be added for practice. It is challenging but fun and rewarding. You see the difference in your body even after a couple of classes.
