YogaSculpt

YogaSculpt is a one hour fusion class bringing together the best from the realms of yoga and fitness to effectively train strength, stability, balance and flexibility through poses and exercises that provide you with a mindful, effective and fun workout that will change your body!

YogaSculpt is rooted in Power Vinyasa Yoga. Exercises are formatted based on yoga postures, safe alignment and using light hand weights in concentric, eccentric and isometric movements. We focus on the safe use of weights with slow, controlled movements and breath connection. Compound movements using a slow and controlled approach to movement create a sculpted physique and strong bones.

The weights (dumbbells) are lifted in a mindful way finding full range of motion, which enhances flexibility and strength.
YogaSculpt creates a sculpted physique and strong bones.

YogaSculpt uses compound movements (moving more than one joint and using multiple muscles at the same time). There are many benefits to training with compound movements:

burn more calories
improve intermuscular coordination
elevate the heart rate and provide a cardiovascular training benefit
a form of dynamic flexibility
improves movement efficiency.

This type of exercise places an adaptive demand on the body’s core musculature and innervation. It doesn’t just strengthen one muscle group at a time. Instead, this kind of training works several muscle groups at once. As a result, you build strength holistically, forcing your body to function as a single unit. Because you’re using several muscle groups at once, coordination and neuromuscular control is also improved. Basically, this mirrors how humans were meant to move, helping to make us more balanced and creating improvements to movements in our everyday life.
