Reach your goals gradually with our GREAT method.
Our certified trainer has a six-week programme to help you learn and gradually work this wellness programme into your daily routine. It includes four types of exercises:

Core => Strength-building exercise to tone up your transverse abdominis, the deep abdominal muscle that's essential to good natural posture.

Bridge => Strength-building exercise to activate your posterior chain, hamstrings, glutes and lumbar spine.

Stretching => Exercise to stretch the hamstrings and glutes to lengthen the muscles you've worked and prevent injury.

Flexibility => Exercise to release your back muscles and prevent muscle tension.

To be done every day!
