"Powered by the intelligence and innovation of STOTT PILATES, Merrithew Health & Fitness introduces a new brand, ZEN•GA, an innovative fusion of exercise science and mindful movement that brings about clarity of the mind while releasing body tension through purposeful movement. ZEN represents the search for inner discovery, while YOGA symbolizes the path to reach it. Together they form ZEN•GA, which is based on Four Mindful Movement Principles: breath, support, yield and flow. When applied together, these principles allow you to become aware of how the body and the mind move in tandem. ZEN•GA focuses on core stability, stamina and resilience while attaining a state of presence. The increase in demand on your neuromuscular system allows you to reap the benefits of improved strength, clarity and overall fitness. This extra-firm Yoga Block offers stability and support for proper alignment and helps deepen poses while performing Yoga or ZEN•GA™ moves. The Yoga Block helps increase flexibility for those that need the extra length to fully extend into each position. "
