Is there such thing as posture classes? If yes, do they go by any other name? I’m looking for a way to improve my posture and focus specifically on it. Same for stretching and flexibility (no yoga)

I’ve heard of the Alexander technique for this, but haven’t tried it myself. Curious what’s worked for people

Not sure if you’re open to Pilates classes - that helped me with my posture. It would also address stretching/flexibility.

Oh yeah, I did Alexander technique at music school for posture. Definitely made you more mindful of it. There’s also that gadget that you stick on your back & vibrates when you are hunching - may be a gimmick but probably worth a try?

Checkout athlean x on youtube

Maybe check out barre classes

Posture uses a lot of muscles in your core as well as back, if those aren’t built up, it’s physically taxing to stand straight. Curious though, OP...why not Yoga? I am not a diehard yogi follower like most but I will say hot yoga fixed a lot of my poor posture issues after I had a baby.

Wondering if anyone struggles with a similar problem I do - I was a volleyball player/serious athlete from 10 until I finished playing my senior year of college. I then worked as a full time volleyball coach/assistant director of operations for a super competitive club in south Florida. I changed career paths for stability and money increase, but now I find when I’m super stressed at work I avoid the gym. I normally go 4-6 days per week and consider it an outlet, but now seems to add stress.

I have never gone to the gym or really worked out, and want to make a change in my life to start exercising. I'm not sure how to handle post-workout showering though.

First time growing out hair and it's coarse/wavy/dry so it takes days for oils to distribute (so oily scalp) due to pushing off washing -- when I do wash, I shampoo only the scalp and will conditioner the rest of my hair. I'm afraid of overwashing, but if I don't wash my hair after I sweat, it will frizz and poof up. Any advice?
