This is a unique strength and stability class which focuses on coordinating and building full body movement, rather than isolating individual muscles. Careful and concise instruction is offered so that you can feel what you are doing as you develop body awareness in a functional framework. Feel confident in your body’s ability and train safely and correctly! Great for dancers and non-dancers alike.
Two options are available in our Fall 2026 Session – Functional Fitness (the OG and ah-mazing class with Sandra Repnow) and Functional Fitness+ (a new class that includes CI Training with Tina Guthrie).
What is CI Training??
Conditioning with Imagery Training for Dancers (C-I Training) is a body conditioning system, which integrates the physical principles in conditioning systems with the neuromuscular patterning in somatic practises, and specifically imagery. The program is designed to: balance muscle function, injury prevention; develop muscular strength, endurance, and flexibility; provide visualization and imagery work for movement re-education, alignment, and mind-body integration and connectedness. Although developed for dancers, C-I Training can also be a very beneficial system for anyone looking to connect with and move their bodies more efficiently.
