Who can participate in a stretch class?
Anyone can participate in a stretch class. Whether you’re a fitness guru, an avid exerciser or the greatest of couch potatoes; everyone can benefit from a stretch class or stretch program. • Why is stretching important? When muscles are tight and immobile, our body cannot move in the way it was designed. What can start out as a minor ache or pain in a muscle can quickly become a reccurring problem and can even lead to injury long-term. Because stretch class focuses on increasing the flexibility of your muscles, this helps to keep the bones and joints of the body moving smoothly and without problems. • How can a stretch class be done at work? Stretch class can be done in a relatively small area – all you need is the space of an exercise mat or a towel. And unlike working out, stretch class does not cause you to sweat so there is no need for a shower before returning to work. With a 45 minute class that’s as close as your nearest boardroom, you can fit it in during your lunch hour! • Wha
