Honest Hips: Mobility & Release Workshop 4/26 @ Momentum sodo
Shakira was right - these hips don't lie! If they say they're feeling cranky, tight, or immobile, let's work through it; this 90 minute hip-focused workshop will include guided rolling with the tune-up balls/foam rollers, mobility sequencing and stretching, and some anatomy and biomechanical exploration as to how the hip joint works and what limitations may be inherent versus what range of motion is available with the bones we've got. Think of this as your hip-focused movement laboratory to explore your pelvis with a new lens (as well as the hamstrings and low back - it's all connected!).
This yoga-inspired workshop is available to all levels, and while we utilize the yoga asanas, this is not a traditional yoga practice. Join us for some movement exploration and inspiration and be ready to walk (slowly) away with a fresh view of your hips and pelvis. Expect groovy tunes and good vibes while we work!
April 26th 12:00pm - 1:30pm
$25 (additional spots $20 when you register yourself and a friend!

Chrysalis Aerial Movement
Mondays
5:00pm Fit Flight
Expect to work/werk out with the weights/balls/bands/silk! Accessible for those with little silk experience (no inversions/tricks)
6:15pm Ballet Play
Half ballet/modern technique, half aerial sling; ballet translates VERY WELL into the silk! No dance experience required, but you should feel comfortable with the following moves: inverting without instruction in rope wrap, getting up into floating straddle, holding an L-sit at least 5 seconds. These prerequisites are here for your safety; inversions are not taught at this level as it’s expected you know them.
Fridays
**Starting 4/10
5:30 pm Barre Flight
Work that muscular endurance with light weights, balls, bands, and the silk! The aerial silk is not used for inversions or tricks here but as a tool for pulling work (think TRX) and mobility as well as a more interesting version of a ballet barre.
6:30pm Playful Flow Flight
A little bit of mobility work, a little bit of strengthening, a few fun transitions – this flow is like your regular yoga flow class, but a little more exciting ;) Level 3+
(This is NOT a full Play class, but contains Play components)
wednesdays
5:00pm Flexibility Flight
Build flexibility AND mobility in this hour flow class with a focus each week (eg outer hips, upper back, making space in the body,ect). Class begins with floor time, moves into functional patterning with the sling, and an inversion offered toward the end with savasana. This is your hour of movement research! No tricks but it is required that you can invert independently.
6:15pm Play
The most advanced class offered at Chrysalis - many students take at least a year if not two or three to build up to this level. Expect a short warmup outside the sling, a long warmup in the sling that oscillates between sling choreography and mobility/stretching designed to warm you up physically and prepare you neurologically for the final trick at the end. Crash mats are required in this class.
momentum sodo
9:30am Vinyasa Flow
A yoga class for folks who may not love yoga - expect grounding, a heat-building flow based in mobility and proprioceptive challenge, and gentle stretching at the end. This class can be super challenging or more of a morning-wake-up depending on which options you take. The playlist is always a vibe - from Jethro Tull to Glass Animals and everything in between, we can move to it all!
10:45am Active Recovery
A massage - IN THIS ECONOMY??? Join me for this experience instead: expect a gentle, 5-ish minute warm-up followed by facilitated self-massage/rolling with the tune up balls and foam rollers. We use the wall, and occasionally the floor, to get deep into our tissues to release tension, stress, and anything else magical you’d like to exhale. This is not a yoga class but a facilitated hour of rolling; while you’re welcome to follow your bliss, I will guide you on where and how to roll while managing time so all you have to do is drop into your body and listen.
We also listen to a different album each week for optimal vibes.
**You do not need to be a member to take yoga! Drop-ins are $20, no strings attached**
more coming soon…..
Did I hear someone say Community Fitness????? Community Fitness on a Thursday morning, perhaps??? Stay tuned
