OCTOBER’S CHALLENGE IS ROLLING! 🍣

We’ve seen the Sushi Roll Challenge all over Instagram, so obviously we had to try it. 😂 Even our kids and dog got in on the fun! 🐶

It looks simple. It is NOT.

The Sushi Roll Challenge puts your strength, core control, mobility, coordination, and balance to the test. It takes muscles working together to move through different positions and control the roll—all things worth working on at every age!

We’ll be practicing it in classes throughout October, and we want EVERYONE to give it a try. We’ll help you find a starting point!

Your goal: master the Sushi Roll by the end of the month. 💪

Come try it, practice it, film it, and tag us in your attempts!

🍣 Who’s ready to roll?
