Sucking your stomach in and tightening your abdominal muscles is

not the way to develop a strong core.

When you tense up your core muscles, you actually diminish your

strength and hinder function by constricting your ribs, diaphragm,

and the internal organs that lie under your abdominal muscles.

To properly strengthen your core boils down to one goal: ensuring

your skeletal system is stable enough to maintain its integrity as

you do complex, involved movements…while your breathing stays

consistent.

Your body has to be synchronized and fluid. It’s not about sucking

your belly in, which actually makes it harder to move and breathe.

Your core involves your pelvic floor, your deep abdominal muscles,

transverse abdominis, deep lower back muscles, and diaphragm.

All together with the spine, these components create a container

for your abdominals and organs, and that container likes to move

and breathe, not be sucked in.

The whole goal with strengthening your core is to create a

dynamically stable spine that allows you to move safely and

efficiently!

Many people suffer from chronic tension in the neck and shoulders. This may be experienced as mild to severe pain in the neck and/or shoulders, as mild to severe tension in the jaw (TMJ) and/or head, as mild to severe limitation in the mobility of the head, as mild to severe restriction in the movement of the arms. Yoga can help understand, alleviate, and support healthy movement of the upper region. This can
have profound implications in breathing as well. Open to all levels.

Virtual Yoga For Arthritis and Pain Relief

with Patricia Videgain

TBA

In this class, we will learn yoga to find a medium place – doing just enough to help the process of healing but not too much so inflammation is the result. Each class will introduce principles of yoga for those that have never practiced or done yoga before. It also welcomes those that are versed in yoga but suffer from pain or arthritis and are looking for a new way of moving.

It is recommended to have props such as a Chair, 1-2 quick release yoga straps, 2 foam blocks, 3 blankets or quilts (no towels please), bolster and/or pranayama pillow, sticky mat, and a softball or a tennis ball.“Your Body is Your Temple”. B.K.S. Iyengar
