What Makes BodyBalance® Great for Your Wellbeing 🧠💪✨

BodyBalance® is a holistic workout that draws from three powerful mind-body disciplines: yoga, Tai Chi and Pilates. This Les Mills-designed programme offers Kiwis a complete approach to physical and mental wellbeing.

During each 55-minute session, you'll flow through a series of simple yet effective movements that:

• Improve flexibility - gradually increase your range of motion through gentle, sustained stretches
• Build core strength - engage your deep abdominal muscles to support proper posture and spine alignment
• Enhance balance - develop stability through controlled movements and poses
• Reduce stress - practice mindful breathing techniques that activate your body's relaxation response

Each class follows a structured format that begins with a gentle warm-up, progresses through a standing strength sequence, includes floor-based exercises, and concludes with a calming meditation. The movements are performed to carefully selected music that complements each section.

As a Level 3 class at Fitness Matakana, this BodyBalance® session is particularly suited to participants who already have a good fitness foundation. However, instructors provide options to modify movements, allowing you to work at your own pace and gradually build your practice.

Regular attendance can lead to noticeable improvements in posture, core strength, flexibility, and mental clarity. Many participants report sleeping better, feeling less anxious, and experiencing fewer aches and pains with consistent practice.

Whether you're looking to complement your existing fitness routine or seeking a gentler form of exercise with profound benefits, BodyBalance® offers a refreshing approach to wellness that nurtures both body and mind in the beautiful Matakana setting.
