S3 class combines hatha yoga breathing technique with Gyrokenisis & Pilates. You can use it as a warm up before a performance or as a cool down after a day at the office. Either way, you are going to feel amazingly light and fit and calm afterward.

Instructor Shoko Tamai has been doing this holistic mind-body routine for herself 365 days a year for many years to optimize her health and fitness as a professional dancer and maintain her emotional and spiritual wellbeing. What’s in the class is what has proved to work for her, and she is happy to share it with you.
