The Carry Challenge: Rucking for Primal Power and Calm Strength

Return to how humans were built to move: to walk, breathe deeply, and carry.

Before treadmills and yoga mats, our ancestors walked miles each day with baskets, tools, and children in their arms. Carrying was connection — to survival, to tribe, to purpose. Rucking brings that back.

It’s mindful strength training disguised as walking.

You’ll feel grounded, upright, and capable — not exhausted or sore.

This class is perfect for anyone who likes yoga’s calm, but wants to feel a quiet, primal strength in their body again.

### 🔥 The Flow

1. Ground (5–10 min)
Gentle yoga-inspired warmup to open hips, shoulders, and breath.
We reconnect to posture — feeling tall, balanced, present.
2. The Ruck (30–40 min)
We walk with light weight — steady, intentional, peaceful.
Your pack becomes an anchor for strength.
We’ll stop for posture resets, breathing breaks, and short “carry challenges.”
3. Restore (10 min)
Stretch, breathe, and let that new energy settle in.
You’ll feel calmer than before — but stronger too.
