What Makes theSHIFT Different?
Unlike "stretch" classes that only scratch the surface, theSHIFT works from the inside out.
You’ll release layers of built-up tension, build control at the edge of your range of motion, and feel the kind of freedom that makes you say, "I didn’t know I could feel this good!"
