Wholistic Core/Spin Class Choreography released

for WF.com Members ONLY here is my choreography of what we did…you can mimic a similar class on your own, using it. note that in reverse direction (what else is new about ilg, right?) i hammered the students with 20+ minutes of wholistic core work in the style of HP Yoga® BEFORE spinning to pre-fatigue the core and THEN superimpose the 60-minute high intensity SPIN! this is old-school WF philosophy, and, trust me; it worked as well this morning as it did over 30 years ago!
