Notice how life requires us to sit for longer and longer periods of time? This over-sitting can lead to a whole slew of problems including back pain and reduced mobility. Tiffany Cruikshank of YogaMedicine leads you through several essential poses in “Yoga for People Who Sit a Lot.”
This week’s featured classes will help in regaining full mobility in the hip joints and as well as the hip flexor muscles that shorten and tighten while sitting.
This is a yin class for those of you that sit at computers or desks for hours on end. It addresses the tight spots from hours spent seated. Neck, shoulders, back, hip flexors, quads, hip rotators and hamstrings. This practice is also good for those who travel a lot and spend a lot of time seated on a plane
