Yummy Ham Sandwich
Detour Spotlight • 45m
When our hamstrings are juicy and alive, they can add fluidity to our entire movement practice. If you sit a lot, you’re sore where the back of your leg joins your bum, or your forward folds feel tender, this is designed for you. We will activate the entire back line of your legs and build awareness between your mind and hamstrings with strength work. All you need is a dowel and a chair.

You'll want one yoga block and an optional dowel or broomstick.

Wrist Prep Revolution
The perfect complement to any practice that involves weight-bearing on the hands. We'll mobilize the wrists and hands, strengthen the forearms and leave your upper body feeling like it's the foundation you need for plank, push-ups, arm balances and handstands.
