RETREAT DESCRIPTION

This Core Intensive Weekend will commence with a Core Fusion® class to kick start your Caribbean transformational journey. The weekend continues with a full immersion into the Core Fusion® syllabus, which includes our yogic-inspired Core Energy Flow®. Complete your journey with Core Fusion® Sport + a balancing Body Enlightening session to ease you back into reality.

Core Fusion® Introductory Session After your arrival to Providenciales, we’ll begin this transformational weekend with an introductory Core Fusion® session, which will fuse the disciplines of Lotte Berk fundamentals, core conditioning + Pilates. It’s the perfect way to introduce you to exhale’s proprietary and highly-regarded mind body class, or for veterans of this method, it will give you the chance to get into your zone for this intensive weekend.

Core Energy Flow® Intensive Wake up and Invigorate to a combination of yoga asanas, core strengthening, and Qi Gong circular movements to shift energy and produce a state of inner calm and balance.

Core Fusion® Intensive In the afternoon session you will explore advanced positioning and longer sets with more repetition to achieve washboard abs, a tighter and higher backside, and a perfectly toned body! Be prepared to sweat!

Core Fusion® Sport + Body Enlightening Workshop Start your morning with this power packed, calorie-burning session with resistance bands, core balls, and mat abdominals with periodic jump backs for cardio and stamina benefits. This will get your yang going! We will then slide into the yin portion with exhale’s signature mind body therapy, Body Enlightening, which incorporates partner contact work, assisted stretching, relaxation, and body alignment. You will emerge feeling balanced, elongated, and spirited.
