65 minute FRC w/ Alan: hands, wrists + fingers
Alan Foran
•
1h 5m
This class focuses on building range and strengthening the wrists and fingers. We work on creating independent movement of these joints to build balanced structure in the hands. This is a progression from our last hand class with a fair amount of weight bearing; if hand and wrist work is newer for you, go back and build a foundation with that class.
Unless hand-specific training is already in your practice, you should practice the previous class a few times before moving on to this practice. If during this class you find this to be too challenging, go back and work that class for a couple more weeks until it feels strong and fluent.
You will need a block, and possibly a wall space.
