Mobility & Yoga Classes
A tree that cannot bend will crack in the wind.
The hard and stiff will be broken; the soft and supple will prevail
Tao Te Ching
Stay pain & injury free with mobility classes
Mobility is fundamental to our health. Most injuries are sustained when our body is put under force outside our comfortable range of motion, and for the average person this range of motion is decreasing every year.
All children have full range of motion…they can touch their toes, roll, fall and bounce back. However over time we repeatedly move in ways that don’t use our full range and our muscles tighten and restrict our ability to move freely.
Increasing our mobility means releasing that tightness from our muscles and allowing them to lengthen so that we can move freely again.
Astrid’s classes will help you release the years of tension allowing you to regain vitality and keeping you pain & injury free.

Discovering this new version means keeping our mind open and continuing to explore as our life evolves.
Because we are born to be Vital, Alive, Thriving and Expanding.
Astrid’s Mission
Astrid’s mission is to challenge the level of health we accept as “normal” for 40+ year old women and men.
We don’t age…..we give up. We accept a downward trajectory.
But we don’t have to! What we have accepted as ageing is a reflection of our daily actions compounded over time which can create tightness, that will lead to pain & injuries or challenges in our health.
330 billion cells or about 1% of our body is replaced every day as part of our bodies natural process. Every 7 years all our cells are replaced. This means that each day we have a new opportunity for health because we are creating a new body each day.
By beginning with a foundation of breathing, rest, hydration and regaining our mobility we can shift our trajectory upward to one of wellness.
Because there is nothing that is not correctable - Everything and ANYTHING is correctable.
No matter where you are it is not too late.
