BFL is one of only a handful of businesses in Minnesota to offer fitness training on the CoreAlign.

Designed to improve posture, balance, and functional movement. The CoreAlign stimulates the core stability muscles to fire in perfect timing while performing challenging exercises, deep stretches and core-controlled aerobic training. This method is used for musculoskeletal rehabilitation, performance enhancement, and as a regular sport for a healthy lifestyle.

CoreAlign is a platform with two independent movable carts. These carts challenge body alignment, improve posture, and increase balance and functional movement while in an upright body position. CoreAlign is part mind-body, part strength, part cardio, and totally unique!
