Posture Part 3

February 13, 2022 Amelia Pudoff

For this class you need a strap, blocks and a blanket.

We start out warming up laying down and work on strengthening our core. From there we continue to get our bodies moving in all fours and then in standing stretching while holding a strap over head. We continue finding the serratus anterior muscles under the shoulder blades in all fours and then in plank pose. We also continue the work of finding the adductors with shoulder strength in side plank with the block variation. All of these poses give us strength for tall upright posture and ease of movements in the standing poses. This class was filmed live February 12, 2022.

Hip To Backbends

December 8, 2021 Amelia Pudoff

For this class we start out with hip glides at the wall, use a block to prop your feet up on. In class we will also use a bolster, blanket/sliders and blocks. Hip glides get our hips moving and then in the reclining sequence we continue to balance the hips on all sides. Then from kneeling we work to strengthen the adductors. This strength carries into the backbends, supporting a long spine with support from within. This class was filmed live December 6, 2021.
