Congratulations Avery! Nominated by Canadians for Outstanding Health & Fitness Series.
Come on a journey…into yoga, where we explore and demystify yoga and its many postures. Beginning with a clear and concise explanation of the pose du jour, the show then guides you through a different posture each week. If you have 10 minutes you have enough time for this user friendly auditory practice. If you have always been curious about this thing called yoga, join us for a low time commitment yet high return show - the only thing you have to lose is stress. The show is hosted by Avery Rich, an Advanced Certified yoga instructor who received her certification from the Yoga Centre Winnipeg. A former lawyer, Avery continues to help people problem solve, only now her methods are on the yoga mat. Teaching into her second decade, Avery resides in Winnipeg, Manitoba.
Our work today will be more release work than stretch but it can be very helpful to begin releasing some of that calf tension we may be dealing with.
The quadricep muscles can be very tight in many of us so today's episode is designed to release and soften into this part of the body.
The work we will do today may give new meaning to the word “tight ass!”
Many areas of the back body hold tension as a result of our everyday lives and how we move and behave, including the rib area.
So as we move into our work today, focus on the breath and exhale into the tennis balls allowing the muscles to release.
Using tennis balls as props to help release tension is a very effective way to release unnecessary tension in various muscle groups in the body.
