Is Essentrics similar to yoga?

No—Essentrics is very different from Yoga. The Essentrics technique uses “eccentric” muscle contractions to simultaneously strengthen and stretch every muscle in the body. An Essentrics workout consists of  dynamic  movement—which means that you’ll never stop moving during the workout. Although we don’t focus on meditation or spirituality, Essentrics is still a complementary workout to Yoga, as it helps to rebalance the full body, increase flexibility and mobility.
