Stretch and Strength
About the Class
All Levels (Ages 7 and up). This class is designed to lengthen the muscles, gain flexibility in the legs, hips, and backs. The class is designed specifically for the figure skater. We work on stretches that will translate directly into their skating (example: spirals, bielmann, etc.).
We work with resistance bands to challenge stretches and work the muscles so that they gain strength to be able to hold the stretches.
