Balance can deteriorate as we age but just like muscles, balance can be stimulated, enhanced and improved through engagement. In this workout you'll strengthen your core and hips to improve your balance and posture, which help you move securely and stay injury-free.

Created, produced and hosted by former professional ballerina Miranda Esmonde-White, the continuing series CLASSICAL STRETCH: BY ESSENTRICS helps people of all ages and fitness levels rebalance their bodies, increase mobility and keep joints healthy and pain-free.

In CLASSICAL STRETCH: BY ESSENTRICS XI, participants will notice an immediate increase in flexibility and a release of tension in their muscles after each episode-improving their posture and range of motion.
Stress is released and aches and pains are soothed through the gradual unlocking of the entire body.
