We will focus on balance, coordination and control of joint movement. There will be minimal standing work as well. We will also explore helpful breathing techniques. Where possible we’ll also practice functional exercises useful for daily life and which will help you maintain some strength and endurance.

You’ll have an opportunity to relax when you feel you’ve done enough. This is all about exploring what feels “right” for your body on the day.))
