willPower & grace is a formatted cardio –sculpt format based in functional drills and postures.
Our goal is to help students build muscular strength, endurance, flexibility and neuro-muscular connection
through a repetitive sequence of smart exercises for the entire body, including the feet. willPower & grace is a
barefoot workout; we’ve been teaching people foot fitness for over a decade.
Barefoot Training vs. Minimalist Foot Training
willPower & grace® is typically practiced in a clean, safe and predictable environment. In this case we believe
that barefoot is best. However, effective foot fitness can be practiced with a true minimal shoe.
What is foot fitness?
Muscular strength, endurance, flexibility and neuro-muscular awareness in the feet and ankles: we believe that
it’s an important piece of all exercise; keeping your body connected from head to toe.
Benefits include:
- Increased strength & endurance in the lower kinetic chain
- Reduced risk of injury
- Toes, feet, and ankles move more naturally, improving circulation, flexibility and general foot health
- Greater integration of more neuro-receptors; leads to better balance and agility
- By eliminating heel lift, bodyweight is more evenly distributed; leading to better posture & alignment
- Body moves more functionally – it just FEELS good.
willPower & grace® fundamentals:
- Repetition produces results. willPower & grace® is a formatted program. Maintaining simplicity within
our choreography allows our students (and instructors)to focus on foot fitness exercises. - willPower& grace® is multi-level, full-body workout.
- Level 1 students should be safely barefoot, learning the major movement patterns.
- Level 2 students become more aware of foot-fitness, while enhancing precision in full-body.
- Level 3 students will leap and land, without a sound, challenging their thresholds
- willlPower instructors guide students with positive, uplifting philosophy to increase their self confidence
and lead them to recognized results. - Each willPower & grace® workout begins with a foot specific warm-up, which includes:
- Dorsi and plantar flexion
- Eversion and Inversion
- Toe Grip, and Arch Doming
- Toe lifts, toe spread, toe tap
Be patient. Gradual acclimation will ensures safe progression. When initiating a foot fitness program feet may
be weak, stiff, and generally unfit.
