A strong core is key to everything we do on and off the wall. Whether you're on an overhang, heel hooking, twisting, reaching, doing a dyno or just walking down the street, you engage your core. And it's so much more than abs! In this class, we focus on strengthening abs (of course!), hips, glutes and lower back to prevent injury and get the most out of your climbing sesh!
