Dubbed the SoulCycle of dance, KINRGY is a program created by Julianne Hough – a spiritual fitness journey if you will, which my endo sis describes as a whole self experience. KINRGY is about moving your body, breathing and activating your imagination. It is meant to build mental and spiritual strength as much as the physical.
Having used dance as my form of therapy (even before I realized it actually WAS a form of therapy), I had been wanting to sign-up for an online class for awhile, and while I don’t suggest KINRGY for everyone – it’s definitely Goop-tastic (see: Gwyneth Paltrow) – you’re guaranteed a sweat which is nice to know going into a new workout. There are only so many yoga and barre classes one can take, no?
Unlike a typical dance class, KINRGY is not about perfection, but rather expression, and there was something cathartic about surrendering your mind to your body during the class. I’m not going to lie, KINRGY is definitely a bit cult-like (NXIVM’s Keith Raniere would eat this shit UP), but so is SoulCycle… plus, I ended the class completely drenched, energized and ready to tackle my to-do list.
WHAT TO EXPECT:
Lots of breath work, child-like movement, and an overall healing experience for the mind and body.
