Advanced shoe technology has allowed us to cushion and control motion in our feet and ankles. This advance support does not allow full articulation where we really need it. We’ve lost flexibility and mobility in crucial joints. Barefoot exercise increases neural input from the ground to the feet to the brain. It aids in proper spinal alignment and leverages all of the body’s natural biomechanics. This class provides a combination of yoga and aerobics to reconnect you with your feet. (1/2) | sign up
