This flowing practice helps to build the rotational capacity of our shoulders, building towards some of the more complex shapes we might see in our yoga practice.
In this practice we focus on movement around the head, neck and shoulders. We play with different positions of internal and external rotation as well as scapular CARs before adding a short flow. We use 2 blocks in this practice and be sure to clear some space around you to avoid blocks colliding ...
Join me in this deconstruction of your Up Dog - isolating and activating each component. Notice the difference as we then integrate this work into some flows, spending some extra breaths in this (usually) transitional posture. Have a couple of blocks handy and some support for prone work as needed.
