Class-of-the-day
Monday day 1: First day of the week can feel stressful and challenging with a lot on the agenda. After or before a long day itโs important to recharge. In this โFront splits ๐บ root chakraโ class you get split flexibility, meditation and yoga all in the same class! A calm class with focus on the root chakra to keep us balanced and on trackโจ
If you donโt have so much time to spend but still want to work on your splits I recommend the 13min. โsplits before bedโ class before you go to sleep ๐ค๐
Front splits ๐บ Root Chakra ...

Got my butt back to pole training! I was exhausted after doing this trick a million times. Trying to get it solid and clean for my next show . I fell asleep on the yoga mat in the studio after (not joking !) ๐Have you guys tried this split ?itโs pretty tricky ๐ฌ
Marie will be sharing her top 7 classes this week!๐
Marie has been an Align member since 2022-05-25ย here are some words from her.
' Never been a bendy queen in my whole life (turning 42 years now in September) I could do a simple bridge as a kid but nothing else, always struggled with stiff hamstrings even as a kid. Always dreamed about doing the splits and as a 38 year old I finally managed after using the right technique for my body muscles and tendons. That new awareness of that I could actually do the splits made me found Align since I wanted to maintain my new flexibility skill and also as a pole dancer and found Felicity more than amazing which both her pole and flexibility ability. Shortly after I joined Align I was in an accident where my knee got injured but align helped me maintain strengthen and advanced my muscles and flexibility during the healing process. I did a surprisingly comeback and got back at poledancing and became more bendier than ever, I even won 3rd place in a competition using skills and techniques I learned from alignwithfelicity in the performance. I love Align ...its a lifestyle! You get yoga meditation stretching and poledance in one app. And I love the community everyoneโs so sweet sharing their struggles but also everyoneโs success. Itโs an honour to be representing โclass-of-the-dayโ for a week xoxo'
Back at home in Gran Canaria โ๏ธ quite exhausted after a whirlwind of travel for the past 2.5 months but happy to be back and no longer living out of a suitcase ๐ โจ How was your summer guys?
Had the first really deep flexibility session in a long time ! It felt SO GOOD! I put on a podcast and ended up bending for two hours ๐yay ! How do you feel after you stretch?

Trying to get my training done amongst a house full of kids ๐ด๓ ง๓ ข๓ ณ๓ ฃ๓ ด๓ ฟ (pretty challenging !)
Back in London ! At my friends house who has the most adoreable hairless sphinx cats ๐๐the flight back from Thailand was pretty long and tough ๐ฉ I have developed a fear of flying out of nowhere and I had severe anxiety most of the way which was hard to deal with . (Need to do some work around this) so happy to be back on land ๐ sending lots of love from London ๐ฌ๐ง
Leaving Thailand tomorrow! I travelled back to Bangkok and it took 12 hours ๐๐คฏ there was many delays and so much waiting. I took the long way back (wrong decision ) ! Finally we arrived and my energy and patience had completely run out. Orlando was moaning and complaining the whole journey (which I understand) but it was hard and frustrating . I had the biggest mummy meltdown when we reached Bangkok ๐ I could not contain it any longer. I cried for about 30 minutes pretty hysterically. Good news is I feel lighter after it. I think itโs important to just let emotions out to to clear whatever is thereโฆ. I have another huge travel back to London tomorrow so please wish me luck ๐ After London I will see some friends and then go to Scotland to see the family. I look forward to being at my Mums house (and not being the only Mum ) ๐ซฃ๐ฅฐ Sending love and flexy wishes to you all ! Xxx
