At Home Program: Level 4, Month 5 – Legacy Collection

This class offers your body a combination of rigorous upper body movements and more meditative, restorative hip stretches. It’s perfect as either a preparatory class before or remedy after vigorous sport or exercise. As with all Yoga Tune Up® classes, the exercises balance skills with both soft tissue elasticity and integrated whole body strength.

The upper body movements ready us for the infamous twisted arm balance, side crow pose. The preparatory exercises that get you there build connections from your shoulders to your core. Try to expand your practice by paying close attention to your natural breath patterns in all positions to gravity. The slower leg stretch series offers traction, stretch and stability deep in the hip socket via the hamstrings, adductors, obliques and the deep hip rotators. The poses take your body through ranges of motion that with practice can help unwind deeply held tension patterns and remodel the soft tissues around your joints for more integrity in your movement.
