What Matina teaches
Matina's classes are built around focus and control. The work asks you to move at a deliberate pace, keeping tension steady so that the right muscles engage with each movement. The classes are energetic without being fast, and the emphasis stays on how each movement is done.
The Control class, for example, is marked intermediate and focused, and lists at least one Align class as a prerequisite. It runs for about 50 minutes and is a clear example of the style Matina teaches.
When and where classes run
Matina's classes are concentrated in a handful of studios, with Core Community on Main Street in Fraserhood holding most of them. Most of Matina's classes start in the morning, and more than half fall on weekends. The busiest days are Sunday and Monday, and the busiest start times are 9am, 10am, 4pm and 5:15pm.
