What's so magical about a circle?


My love affair with the Magic Circle started many years ago when I first became certified to teach and continues to this day. For those of you who have never experienced it here's a brief decryption...The Magic Circle is designed to add variety and challenge to matwork exercises. The Magic Circle can be used to develop muscular strength, endurance, and flexibility (for the hamstrings, specifically). Increasingly used to target and strengthen specific muscle groups, this economical, lightweight piece of equipment is ideal for home, gym, or travel workouts.
