Riding the wave of strength, stability and mobility— love that. Great class, good mix of strengthening work and restorative, rest, and stretchy type poses. Excited to try the next one.
This has been one of my favorite classes. The shoulder stability moves plus the mobility/stretches of the shoulders has my shoulders feeling strong and stretched. Will come back to this often.
Clear well paced instructions and progression of poses/exercises. The one thing that would have liked was adaptions of the standing poses. i found the duration of those poses to be too challenging for me. It took away therefore, from the focus on the shoulder work. Please offer less strenuous options for those of us who aren't so advanced. Thanks kindly, B
Great class for shoulders. I’ve really focused on shoulder mobility the last couple of years and the importance of strength and flexibility. This class hits all those areas but includes plenty of recovery time to allow you to rest and restore before practicing again. Namaste Figi.
