Yoga for the Legs

This class is effective for all kinds of reasons and for all kinds of people. If you sit for long hours, you are a runner, cyclist or athlete, you have lower back pain, you get leg cramps, your knees hurt sometimes - this class will help you. It's short, but still covers all of the major muscles in the legs - the hamstrings, calves, psoas, quads, it band and the achilles tendon.

Thank you for this class. After a 26 mile bike ride yesterday and a run this morning I really needed it. These types of classes will allow me to maintain my flexibility as I move into my mid 60's. Thanks!
Thank you; many ‘one breadth’ holds of the postures, but never rushed. This gets the parts that don’t always get reached, especially the hip flexors and adductors for me!
Great after riding bike today. Must do this one again.
I practice a DYWM video just about every morning - and I love them all, don't get me wrong! But, most of them are arm and shoulder heavy. Sometimes, gosh, I'd really like a 20 or 30 minute yoga routine that challenges leg strength - or even just gives some good stretching, like this video. There are a few videos that are great for legs, but they aren't described or tagged that way, so I stumble upon them over time. It would be great to have more dedicated leg routines...just to switch it up from the arm-heavy vinyasas...maybe chair pose vinyasas instead? In any event, this was great - it was a nice break and I feel ready to tackle a bike ride now! Thanks David!
