**new
Anytime Yoga! Wake Up:For those of us that wake up with a stiff back or tight hips, this can be really helpful to start the day. Wind Down: For those of us that had a long day of work, or driving, or a big long run or bike ride, this can also be really helpful in letting the body reset before bed. |
Gentle Yoga for Your Back
|
In this practice we spend time with our spine and back. Cat cow tilts galore, plus windshield wipers and sacral circles for nourishing gentle core stabilizing. Mobilize into the upper back to help open up the chest and release the shoulders. Decompress the spine in standing forward folds. Twists for rotations, lateral bends to get into the side space. We cover it all!

Gentle Yoga for Hips
|
In this practice we will stay on the ground, proceeding through different movements and postures for both strengthening and softening around the hips. Including postures like figure four, birddog balance, low lunges, and pigeon variations.
You may want a blanket or a cushion available for extra support. |

Gentle Yoga for Hips II
|
This practice involves stretches for deep into the hips. We'll use the orientation of the pelvis to access into the hips from different angles. Sense how we can lengthen amstrings, get into the outer hip and the inner hip with this class.
No props required for this practice, but as always, use what you need as support. |
Gentle Yoga for Shoulders
|
In this yoga practice we'll spend time focusing on the shoulders, shoulder blades, upper back and neck. Take time to stabilize and strengthen with balance postures, improve range of motion, and restore this area of the body that is often chronically tense.
We will use a rolled blanket at the beginning and end, so if you don't have a throw blanket, you can also use a bath towel or two |
