A studio built around the back
The studio is built around the back, and nearly all of its classes take that as their focus. Sessions combine strength, mobility and stretch in a balanced way, moving through a full arc of tension and release in each class. The studio describes its approach as working toward a strong, mobile and pain-free back, and its teachers guide each session with a calm, clear voice.
Beyond the back focus, most classes are open to all levels, which makes the studio approachable for people who are returning to movement or just starting out.
When and how classes run
The studio's week leans toward the evening, when more than half of its classes begin. Mornings form the next busiest stretch, with classes starting as early as 7:30am and roughly a fifth of all sessions beginning before 9am. Wednesday, Monday and Thursday carry the most classes, and 6pm and 7:30pm are among the most common start times.
All classes run for 60 minutes. For people who want a regular rhythm, the semester courses on the mat offer a set of 18 sessions across the autumn and winter season, with a flexible option to join online. Nina, Lena and Michaela lead the largest share of the timetable.
