• Kinesthetic Awareness & Movement Economy: Develop a fighter’s sense of positioning. Through precise alignment, you’ll sharpen your proprioception—your awareness of where your body is in space—for better balance, control, and technical accuracy.
• Neurological Recovery & CNS Regulation: Accelerate your recovery between tough training sessions. This class actively down-regulates your nervous system, teaching it to shift from “fight or flight” to “rest and digest,” leading to faster muscle repair and sharper reflexes.
