Join me online this Wednesday morning some great Therapeutic Yoga! Here’s what I’ve got on the menu this week: Wed. June 18th - 9:30-10:45am The Ankle Recovery Lab   The ankles and feet are amazingly complex parts of the human skeletal structure with 26 bones, 33 joints and over 100 muscles, ligaments and tendons controlling the vast majority of our capacity for locomotion, balance, stability, and grounding. The ankle is an often underrated and under cared for joint. It is responsible for much of the movement that we are capable of, yet, we rarely give it a second thought, unless we are injured or in pain. As with any injury, prevention is key and creating healthy habits surrounding these complex joints can reduce future risks. After any injury, proper fascial care and retraining are critical to prevent chronic recurrences. Understanding how your ankle works and how to care for it is the key in all circumstances, and the topic of this class!   Join me live online as we explore everything to do with our ankles! Have a chance to ask questions, explore within the safe boundaries of your unique ankle situation, and learn simple and effective ways to improve one of the most important movement structures in your body!   Register at: www.centeredwithinyoga.com/in-person-and-virtual-classes   I look forward to seeing you in class!

Join me online this Tuesday evening or Wednesday morning some great Therapeutic Yoga! Here’s what I’ve got on the menu this week:  Tues. June 10th - 6:00-7:00pm Understanding & Relieving Neck Pain   This class is dedicated entirely to making our neck happier and healthier! Through an understanding of alignment and function, we will explore WHY the neck hurts in the first place, and will look in some of the most common and least common causes of that pain. Through posture correction, fascial care of the ribcage and upper spine, and correct stretching and decompression techniques we will relieve tension and pain and help liberate your neck and get it feeling great again!   Wed. June 11th - 9:30-10:30am The Happy Hip Flexor Class   The term 'hip flexor' actually refers to an entire group of muscles located at the front of your hip which allow you to lift your leg and knee upward towards your chest. Hip flexor muscles include both muscles from our legs (quadriceps, sartorius, and pectineus) as well as large muscles groups from our core (psoas and illiacus), who work together to allow us to complete actions such as standing, walking, running, kicking a ball, or climbing stairs. When the hip flexors start to become to short or adhered (which commonly happens for both people who are inactive or sit a lot, as well as for highly active people who have strained them from improper warm up or intense physical activity), they can create pain and movement limitation in our hips, knees, sacro-illiac joints, and lumbar spine. In this class we will learn how to lengthen and repair our hip flexors to get them feeling great again and to help heal the many other areas of the body they affect!   Register at: www.centeredwithinyoga.com/in-person-and-virtual-classes   I look forward to seeing you in class!
