Yoga Sculpt Intro - ANS How's everyone doing?
For those who don't know me I'm Mia, and I will be guiding you through these next 60 minutes
of yoga sculpt. Today's focus of class is the glute muscle, which supports stability and strength.
My mission is bravery. I want to remind you all not to be so hard on yourselves. Just being here
is something you should be proud of, so take a moment to thank yourself for showing up. If that
resonates with you, I want you to take a deep breath, inhale, and audibly breathe, exhale, let it
go.
Yoga Sculpt is heated power yoga paired with weights and cardio.
It's a challenging workout and you'll feel great afterwards.

be sure to respect your space. Thank you.
