Sometimes no matter how strong, athletic, or skilled you are, you might not be able to execute a technical lift, land a strike, or invert yourself into a handstand properly because you lack the flexibility and range of motion required to create certain body positions. For example, tight hips will make a deep back squat very difficult; tight shoulders will make handstand pushups & overheads squats seem 10x harder than they should be, and tight hamstrings will make a high side-kick on the heavy-bag an impossibility.   Performance enhancement and proper skill development are 2 benefits to stretching that only scratch the surface. We're happy to now offer stretching classes that focus on performance as well as help you check-off a long list of benefits to stretching regularly: - Increase & enhance range of motion - Alleviated tension & knots with myofacial release - Reduce inflammation & soreness  - Enhance running economy - Relieve stress & focus on proper breathing - Releive back pain & manage chronic injuries - Be pro-active, preventative, & HAVE FUN! I'd be willing to bet somewhere along the line you've told yourself "man I should really stretch more often". Maybe after a race you dropped-in on a whim you felt some post-race soreness for up to a week! Well come by our stretch class and learn how to use a foam roller, hit over 30 different static stretching positions, and meet some really cool people! When else will you sit down and dedicate 30-60 mins to just stretching for yourself?? We have all the space and equipment needed for you to just drop in.
