Core Stability

Core Stability is recognised as a vital element of fitness, taught by ETM instructors, gym instructors and personal trainers. Core stability exercises can now be enhanced by using additional core/balance equipment (medicine balls, stability discs, bosu, foam rollers and additional available equipment), making them more challenging and fun.  You will take away the skills to make your core classes or one-to-one sessions more advanced, varied and original.
