Tones and strengthens the muscles, helps a lot with flexibility and helps with balance.
It isn't as easy as it looks!0 -
It's a terrific exercise for your back. I used to go before and after my scoliosis surgery and it made me feel kinda good... and the final relax after the class is the best.0

Strengthens your core. I feel ridiculous doing most of the exercises, but it really is a good workout. I should go more often.0
