The classes

What Curt teaches

  • Qigong~TaiChi

    Aligning the physical structure, cultivating Qi and learning to navigate all your movement with a sense of elasticity. This practice will boost your immune system, reduce stress and enhance quality of life. The class incorporates gentle movement, breath and self-applied massage to retrain posture, encourage circulation, improve balance, flexibility and coordination.

  • Gentle Strength Yoga

    An at-ease, gradual class for strengthening, flexibility, balance and coordination. Cultivating a calm, mind~body gentle strength with reclined, seated, kneeling and standing positions. Curt offers modifications so each participant can enjoy a healthy challenge rather than a harmful one.

  • Fitness

    Full Body Fitness: engaging, dynamic movement patterns that enhance neuroplasticity and condition an agile mind and body. Resistance training for strength and stamina!
