Both the body and the mind are fed with movement. This class teaches movement unidentified with a specific discipline, with moves that are sport agnostic. The goal of the class is to offer novel options on ways to move, insight into a more complete human movement map, and ingredients for a healthy, thriving sustainable lifestyle. No equipment is needed for this class. If possible, a towel, mat and water may be helpful.<\/p>\n SIGN UP NOW >><\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n <\/a>[\/vc_column_text][vc_separator style=”shadow”][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n [\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row css=”.vc_custom_1523655829674{background-color: #f9f9f9 !important;}”][vc_column][vc_row_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1\/4″ css=”.vc_custom_1523599961504{margin-top: -25px !important;}”][vc_single_image image=”6243″ img_size=”212×142″ alignment=”center” css=”.vc_custom_1523903694985{padding-top: 30px !important;}”][\/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”3\/4″][vc_column_text]<\/p>\n Join SB’s very own Riley Scherer<\/strong> for a run along Vancouver’s scenic seawall.
