Stretch & Sound (monthly reset for men)

Step into this class to improve mobility, reduce stress, and give your body the recovery it needs to move better and think clearly.

The first half of the session focuses on guided, floor-based, strap-assisted stretching to safely open tight hips, hamstrings, shoulders, and lower back — areas where men commonly hold tension. Improving flexibility helps reduce injury risk, enhance athletic performance, and support long-term joint health.

The second half is deep relaxation with gong and singing bowls. The sound frequencies help shift the nervous system out of stress mode and into recovery mode, allowing the body to release tension and reset.

Benefits:
• Improved mobility and range of motion
• Reduced muscle tightness and chronic tension
• Better sleep and recovery
• Lower stress levels
• Mental clarity and focus

This monthly reset is ideal for men who train hard, work long hours, or simply need structured recovery time.

No experience required. All levels welcome.

Reserve your spot and invest in your strength — through recovery.

The Evolve Academy of Conscious Learning is located inside The Schoolhouse at 720 Magnolia Road, Suite 21, Charleston, SC 29407.

Please park on the Magnolia Road side of The Schoolhouse building and enter through the double doors labeled “Events.” Once inside, turn left, and you’ll find Evolve Academy in Suite 21.

As a center for adult personal and professional development, many of our classes take place in the evenings and on weekends. If you happen to arrive late and find the exterior doors locked, simply knock gently on the window to the left of the doors—this is the Evolve classroom window. (Arriving a few minutes early is the smoothest way in.)

Evolve is a serene, cozy space designed with nervous-system comfort in mind. You’ll find calm lighting, soft rugs and cushions, warm herbal tea, and neutral tones—intentionally curated to help you feel safe, grounded, and cared for. All are welcome. We love all of our neurodivergent friends, all of our friends of various genders, sexual orientations, ethnic backgrounds, physical challenges, and more. There is a handicap accessible ramp to enter the building. This is a safe space for you.

Many of our classes are taught with our students seated on comfy cushions on the ground. If you need or would like a chair, we are happy to accommodate you.
