What Do I Need to Bring?

Just yourself!

You should wear comfortable workout clothes but forget the shoes as we do the class barefoot to feel full contact with the floor for the balancing and postural work. In colder weather you may like to bring something warm to wear for the relaxation and meditation tracks.

Some clubs may ask you to bring a yoga mat and you may prefer to do so anyway – however, this is not essential.

How Often Should I Do BODYFLOW™?

While you’ll feel real benefits from coming to class just once a week most people try to come three times a week.

How Soon Will I Notice The Results?

It usually takes about three classes to really get to grips with the feel and structure of the class. You might also feel a little muscle soreness at first but this will quickly be replaced with a noticeable improvement in strength, flexibility and posture.

The great news is that from the very first class you should start to experience the stress-reducing and spiritually renewing benefits of the BODYFLOW™class.

BODYFLOW™ 39

BODYFLOW release 39 starts from a different dynamic with the mat placed longways down the room. The focus is on warming and mobilizing the shoulders and legs in a music and movement combination that feels incredible.

Smooth, hip sounds from Groove Armada accompany the smooth combo move of 3-Legged dog to Knee to Chest Pose in Track 2. This is followed by a track based on Warrior 2. Here we deepen into better alignment and feel the benefits of both strength and flexibility gains.

Special thanks to those who suggested the song Breathe(2am) in Track 4. This creates a beautiful template for the balance poses.

Sounds of orchestra, choir and soulful harmonies are perfect to stretch deeply and to quieten into Track 9. A new option here is the Splits Pose which is a superb leg stretch.

The stillness of Immerstress 2 by Andre Garceau and Bruno Iachini allow for deep relaxation or meditation, whichever you choose. The class finishes in a truly restful, restorative way with the contemplative notes of Russel Walders The Breathing Of The World.
