The Self-Massage + Mobility Series
Join Ella Isakov for Self Massage + Mobility, a 10-session series.
In each 30 minute session, Ella targets a different muscle group in the body to carefully and comprehensively release and restore tight and tired muscles. You will learn safe and effective self-massage techniques for stiff necks, tight hips, and tired feet, among many others. Within these sessions you will receive creative and effective tools to help live with greater ease and more vitality.
Ella combines her 12+ years of teaching experience as well as techniques learned from the lineage of Yoga Tune-Up and Functional Range Conditioning to bring you this unique offering.
In each session you will be lead through curated movements and exercises that decrease pain, tension, and inflammation, while also promoting circulation and greater range of motion. In addition, self-massage stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system, allowing the body to settle into cycles of restoring and healing.
In this series you will receive immediate and unlimited access to all 10 classes, over 5 hours of on-demand material. You are encouraged to digest this material at your pace, and return to it over and over again as a valuable resource in your self care routine.
