- Description
This class is designed with climbers in mind!
The goal?
To boost your active range of motion while building strength, balance, and coordination to facilitate better movement on and off the wall.
In November and December 2026 our 8 week block focus will be- Happy Hips for ClimbersWhether it's high steps, big rockovers, drop knees, or bridging between feet, our hips play a huge part in our climbing fluidity and movement. In this block, we'll look at different movements of the hips and how they translate to climbing. There will be a heavy focus on active range of motion and stability throughout the flow element of the class, followed by some longer-held gentle postures and a final relaxation.
This class is open to climbers and yogis, from competent beginners to more experienced, with modifications and variations offered along the way:
Week 1: Understanding Movement in the Hips
Week 2: High Steps and Hip Flexion
Week 3: Rockovers and Weight Transfer
Week 4: Bridging and Wide Leg Stability
Week 5: Drop Knees and Hip Rotation
