About this Event
What to expect
This class was designed by Irina K Fitness, a former competitive gymnast and movement specialist, specifically for people whose bodies take a daily beating from work. Whether you’re sat at a desk for 8+ hours or on your feet all day in a physically demanding role, the strain on your lower back builds the same way: through repetitive, unbalanced load with no time to reset.
Based on years of professional gymnastics training , where body control, alignment, and injury prevention are everything , Irina built this class around the specific movement patterns that break down in desk workers and people who stand for long shifts: tight hips, a weak core, and a lower back doing more work than it should.
In this session, you’ll:
- Get a short assessment of your posture and where your body is holding tension
- Work through reformer exercises targeting core stability, hip mobility, and spinal alignment , tailored to whether your pain comes from sitting or standing
- Learn 2–3 simple movements you can use during your workday to reset your posture
- Leave with looser hips, a more supported lower back, and a better knoledge of how to move better in your every day life
Who it’s for
Complete beginners are welcome . This class is specifically designed for:
- Office workers who sit for long hours and feel stiffness or pain by the afternoon
- Retail, hospitality, healthcare, or trade workers who are on their feet most of the day
- Anyone with mild-to-moderate lower back tension who wants to address the cause, not just stretch it out
(If you have a diagnosed spinal condition or recent injury, please message before booking so we can make sure it’s suitable for you.)
Why Irina
As a former gymnast, and Harvard educated in lower back pan, Irina has spent her career studying how the body compensates under repeated strain , and how to retrain it. She’s since worked with professional footballers and office professionals across Central London, applying that same precision to everyday back pain.
