Yoga PosesChilds Pose (Balasana)This restful posture is very nurturing and relaxing, as well as a gentle stretch for the lower back, knees and ankles. Insert it into your yoga practice whenever you need a break.
Reverse Prayer Pose with Twists (Paschima Namaskarasana)In Sanskrit paschima is the backside of the body; namaskar means to join the hands in prayer. This is a great pose for those with tight wrists and forearms. It stretches the flexors of the wrist. We are adding a twist for the spine, which also intensifies the stretch on the wrists.
Seated Achilles Tendon StretchThis pose isolates the stretch to the achilles tendon like no other. It is great for those with tight calves and ankle joints.
Seated Dorsal Foot StretchThe muscles of the shin, when over stressed, can cause shin splints or tendonitis. Regular stretching of them will increase plantar flexion (pointing the foot away from the body) and assist in the development of greater power and speed in sports.
