Get ready for a groovy, feel-good flow set to a funky soundtrack designed to keep your spirits high and your hips happy. This session focuses on split flexibility and flow, with dynamic drills and rhythmic movement to help you find your flex — and your groove. Expect smiles, sass, and some serious leg lines by the end of class. 📍 Level All Levels Welcome – From First-Time Flexors to Seasoned Bendy Kittens Kittens love to flex, and these sessions are no exception! Our weekly Flexibility Classes are designed to help you stretch smarter, move better, and feel stronger — whether you’re chasing your first flat split, deepening your backbend, or simply looking to undo the tightness of daily life. Each class combines active and passive flexibility, nerve flossing, PNF techniques, and targeted conditioning for the muscles that matter most to aerialists, pole dancers, and everyday movers alike. Expect a supportive and empowering environment where every stretch brings you closer to feeling your best in your body. ✅ Prerequisites None! These sessions are suitable for all levels of flexibility and experience. Every stretch and exercise can be adapted to your current range, with progression options available if you want to push yourself a little further. 🩰 What to Wear Wear comfortable clothing that allows freedom of movement — think leggings, shorts, or joggers with a vest or T-shirt. Bare feet, socks, or soft-soled shoes are all fine. Avoid jewellery or anything that may restrict your stretch. 👜 What to Bring All materials are provided, but you’re welcome to bring your own yoga mat if you prefer. Don’t forget your water bottle — staying hydrated is key to supple muscles! 💃 What to Expect in Class Each 60-minute session is carefully designed to balance mobility, flexibility, and strength.
