This new class focuses on proprioception & vestibular processing.

Working these proprioception exercises into your workout routine may help improve your balance and athletic performance and reduce your risk of injury and falls.

Proprioception, also known as kinesthesia, is the ability to sense and freely move one’s body and limbs in one’s external environment. This kinesthetic awareness is important for day-to-day living.

If you’ve ever noticed the difference between grass and cement on the bottom of your feet or felt a grocery bag become heavier as you fill it with apples, you’ve experienced proprioception.

Proprioception can worsen with age, injury, or disease, making daily tasks harder and increasing your risk of injury and falls. Adding proprioception training exercises to your routine may help lower your risk of injury and improve your fitness levels.

The vestibular system is a crucial part of the inner ear that helps maintain balance and spatial orientation. It consists of physical structures and neural pathways that process sensory information related to head movement, body orientation, and acceleration. This system plays a vital role in coordinating eye movements and maintaining stability; if it is disrupted, it can lead to dizziness and balance disorders.
