HOLISTIC REHABILITATIVE
PRACTICE
Raquel's gentle class is a wonderful treat! She teaches a true gentle. A slower tempo, with great cues and modifications that help me to be more intentional with my movements, to strengthen, release tension areas, improve joint mobility, and focus on alignment. A restorative workout. A perfect balance to my shorter, wind-me-down after work TDM classes. My goal is a lifestyle for my health and wellbeing. Mahalo nui loa Raquel!

Hi, I am Raquel Lanting. I have been teaching The Dailey Method since 2012 and have logged thousands of hours teaching group barre and cycle classes. My extensive experience has enabled me to connect individually with my students to help them move through each of their wellness journey. Believing that each body is unique and a certain exercise will feel and look different from one student to the next, my method of teaching taught me to adapt to each of my student's needs individually. One will be hard-pressed to come out of my class untouched, either by hands-on adjustment or verbally as I motivate either before, during or after class. My distinctive cues make a beginner at ease and a seasoned one enjoying a worthwhile workout.

When fitness classes pivoted primarily to virtual platforms in early 2020, my classes reached far and wide. Soon, I was receiving many compliments for them, primarily the way I have been teaching The Dailey Method's Gentle class, a class designed to be nurturing and supportive. That is when I decided to further pursue training for rehab-based exercises and get certified as a Pilates Instructor thru Integrative Pilates, combining the power of Physiotherapy and Pilates. July 2021, Intention Movement + Barre + Pilates was born --- the only The Dailey Method Teacher Collective Licensee in British Columbia! I am thankful that you are here to see how the classes can make you feel and move better. I am invested in your health and wellness and I can't wait to work with you!

DAILEY BARRE

This is an ideal class to support a healthy lifestyle or as a complementary to other activities like running, walking, skiing, cycling.
