Short Class 78: Spine Circuit
5 classes per week
•
43m
This class is all about the Spine.
Equipment Needed: Yoga Blocks and we’ll be using a wall from a couple drills.
In this class we'll go through different drills for the spine with a slightly more up tempo pace. Please go at your own pace though, if you need to pause the video and slow things down - you absolutely can. It’s always best to listen to your body and go at your own pace.
Segmentation of the spine is a big emphasis in the class, but we have a few rotational drills as well. Proper Spinal Segmentation is so important for the health and strength of our Spine. We want each vertebrae to move relative to one another, which will help the spine to diffuse forces evenly throughout the entire spine.
It's interesting that when we think of the core in the fitness industry, we mostly think of the abs and obliques. Often times when people struggle with back pain, they’re being told to strengthen their “core”. While that’s important, it’s also very important to improve the actual ability of the spine to move more efficiently.
I hope you’re feeling buttery after this class!
