This class will provide you with a gentle approach to a daily routine for both strengthening and creating suppleness in the neck and shoulders. Yoga has the potential to strengthen our weaknesses and balance our asymmetries if we are willing to practice on a regular basis. “Alignment and Awareness” in asana are the keys to unlocking the benefits of Yoga’s healing benefits. By building proprioceptive awareness and being skillful with our alignment, we have the opportunity to release chronic contractions and tension. New beginners are welcome.

Lack of mobility and stability in the feet can, and most likely will, end up causing problems for the joints above them. The feet are the foundation of our skeleton and play a critical role in our posture and movement habits. Due to certain footwear and the lack of challenging surfaces and terrain, the feet are not getting exposed to environments that keep them supple, strong and healthy. The aches of our feet, which are critical for healthy biomechanics in the knees, hips and spine may begin to collapse, and form a sort of internal collapse, (the ability to connect to our pelvic floor and core are very much linked to the support of our foot arches). If our feet lose their mobility and strength, we become vulnerable to foot disorders such as plantar fasciitis, sprained ankles, bunions, shin splints and neuromas. Many therapists look at the feet as a key contributory factor in lower back pain.

Dysfunctions in the biomechanics of the feet also have a tendency to ripple upwards causing instability and poor tracking in the knees, pain and dysfunction in the hips and even back pain. This class is appropriate for all level practitioners with some previous experience.
