October is Breast Cancer Awareness Month! Alisha is a Pink Ribbon Program certified breast cancer exercise specialist. She chose this certification when her mother was diagnosed with a rare neuroendocrine breast cancer. A mastectomy with or without reconstruction introduces changes in joint range of motion for the shoulder(s) and can create or exacerbate poor posture due to tight chest muscles and weak back muscles. The curriculum is a post-operative rehabilitation program designed to help you move well through the chest, back, and shoulders while building core strength.

Frequently Asked Questions
1. How does the waitlist work? If a class is full and you schedule yourself, you will be added as "next in line. If there's a cancellation, you'll automatically be moved from the waitlist to enrolled. If you've signed up for reminders via the app, you will be notified of the schedule change via text/email or both. If you need to cancel, the attendance policy applies. Coming off the waitlist will use a class credit.
2. What should I wear? Grip socks. Tight, stretchy clothes without zippers, buckles or other metal embellishments because those can damage the equipment. Shorts and sports bras are fine as long as your tits and bits are secure. I've seen some stuff!
3. I've never done Pilates! What should I expect? Everyone starts somewhere! Classes are small for this purpose! You don't need experience or flexibility. Just come with an open mind and ready to have a great time! If you'd like to discuss your specific needs, email be1corfit@yahoo.com or call/ text 256-258-9388
4. What if I'm pregnant? Please consult your doctor before starting any fitness program. That being said, the instructor will walk you through modifications dependent upon your trimester. Because our classes are small, you will receive all the attention you deserve to help you move safely and enjoyably.
5. Does 1COR offer beginner classes? The classes are small on purpose so I can meet you where you are, provide alternatives and modifications, and support you through your pilates experience.
6. What if I have arthritis, osteoporosis, or a joint replacement? I've worked with individuals with a variety of conditions. I can help you modify safely and remain pain free. If there's a movement that's contraindicated for your condition, I'll give you an alternative.
