So you wanna do some slinky sexy floorwork, but how do you even get down there without looking like you're just plopping down for a sit? This workshop focuses on the best transitions and shapes specifically for plus sized folks! We will cover getting to and coming back up from the floor, fun and flirty floor moves, and flexibility moves for those with and without their splits! Kneepads are encouraged!
