Yoga itself is an isometric practice using the principles of resistance training. Postures, or "asanas", are used in Yoga to create maximum health in the body for improved concentration and control. In this practice, the focus is to improve the integrity of the shoulder joint.
Using a chair as a tool or prop, experience body positions that causes muscles to have to generate enough tension internally to allow for various joint positions. 'Yoga Chair Shoulder Mobility' uses integrated isometrics specifically targeted to stimulate the muscles that attach to the shoulder. using a Yoga strap and bodyweight to improve shoulder strength.
We will be practicing several standing asanas using various levels of the chair to improve joint mobility. The chair will provide resistance and support. Then, sitting in the chair, we will practice some classic shoulder positions used in some familiar Yoga poses using a Yoga Strap.
