Each Class:
Each class will begin with a traditional greeting, jumping jacks, stretching and core work. Stretches include butterfly stretches L Stretches, core work will consist of bicycles drills and ABC pushups. We will then review the previous lesson and dive into that day’s lesson. Each class will conclude with a 15 count – a series of positions and moves the students will become familiar with as we progress through the classes. 

Students are not only encouraged to replicate each move, but also accompany each move with a “kia,” count out loud and respond to instruction with a loud “yes, Ma’am.” During each class, we will count (1-10) in Korean. We encourage the students to repeat after the instructor so that they can commit the numbers to memory.
