Some Props we use for remote workouts
Foam Roller
Roll out Muscle Tension and Feel better. We also work the core and show you exercises to feel taller. Learn how to use the roller at home to free yourself from chronic tension and muscle tightness. I believe everyone should have a roller at home and work to be able to help themselves when little aches and pains arise. Feel free to use our rollers or bring your own. We sell rollers at the studio and are happy to reserve one for your purchase.
