MUSIC WORKSHOPS WITH MIRANDA
Creating your PCW1 playlist: Tips from Miranda on finding the right music.
Choosing your songs for PCW1 (and other PCW’s in the future) will become a labour of love. Essentrics is about imagery and getting your clients to work a certain way—which will be translated through your music. Listen to the three audio workshops from Miranda (by clicking the links below) on the difference between songs we use for Trademark sequences vs. those for stretching and strengthening exercises.
You will gain inspiration, motivation, and confidence in building your playlists.
Don’t forget to check out our Instructor Newsletters which offer song suggestions in each edition.
