For this class you will need a blanket and yoga blocks. In this sequence we use the blanket as a big hug to start off the class. This is a great way to get feedback on where you can feel your breathing. From there we continue to use the blanket in novel ways, working on hand strength while using it as a strap and then later pulling ourselves deeper into twists using the blanket.

Preparing for a Run
In this class you will need yoga blocks, some wall space, two yoga blankets or big towels and possibly a chair. For this practice be prepared to work! We will be actively working to improve range of motion in the ankles, knees and hips in this fun sequence. We will use the blanket for myofacial release, this may not be appropriate if you have had knee surgery so you can practice this part of the class skipping the blanket. We build up to skandasana, a side lunge squat! This class was filmed live Dec 14, 2020
