Yoga in Scarborough: Discover Functional Range Conditioning (FRC) at Smoothflo Academy

Are you looking for a unique and effective yoga experience in Scarborough? Welcome to Smoothflo Academy, where we offer Functional Range Conditioning (FRC) Yoga, a specialized system designed to enhance your mobility, flexibility, and strength. Our classes are perfect for anyone seeking to improve their physical performance, whether you're an athlete or simply looking to feel better in your body.

Why Choose FRC Yoga?

At Smoothflo Academy, we believe in yoga that does more than just stretch your muscles. Our FRC Yoga classes are rooted in science, combining the best of strength and conditioning protocols to help you gain control over your mobility. Unlike traditional yoga, FRC Yoga is designed to build active flexibility by strengthening the muscles through their full range of motion. This method is particularly beneficial for athletes, especially those involved in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu (BJJ), as it helps enhance performance, prevent injuries, and improve overall body mechanics.

For those unfamiliar with FRC, it’s a system developed by Dr. Andreo Spina that systematically increases the body’s range of motion while training the nervous system to control these new ranges. You can learn more about how FRC works and its benefits from the official Functional Anatomy Seminars​​.
