Today we are going to show you how to use your PWR!Step and PWR!Rock to make steady turns.

First, start with a nice wide base of support. We then want to rock all of our weight to one side, then move your chest and other foot to step out and turn with your PWR!Step. We can practice the PWR!Step with our arms nice and wide, coming from an open position and then back together again.

Posture is a great excuse to PWR! Up with some antigravity core strengthening! As a newborn, you already did the hard work of developing your postural muscles as you struggled to hold your head up in “tummy time” or to scoot, roll, sit, or stand to get to favorite toys! Unfortunately, our lifestyle (e.g., injuries, bad habits, diet, stress) can take a toll on our musculoskeletal health. And, for PWP, worsening of posture is one of those “axial” symptoms that doesn’t respond robustly or at all
