  • 20 min Mobility w/ Vytas - Overhead Shoulders - 6/8/23

    Arms overhead are a common theme in yoga (down dog, chair, handstand, etc). This practice will strengthen your ability in shoulder flexion and create more space for you to move in that direction.

  • 20 min Mobility w/ Vytas - Lower Leg Work - 6/13/23

    Episode 3

    Human movement relies heavily on our feet, ankles and knees. This is where we meet the earth. If we don't have good mobility down here, then the imbalances will ricochet up the body, getting worse as they rise.

  • 20 min Mobility w/ Vytas - Hugging vs Spreading - 6/15/23

    Episode 4

    In this mobility practice we get at both the shoulders and hips with two ranges of motion; adduction and abduction. These work in opposition with each another to both hug into the body and pull away from it. Enjoy this strong yet focused 20 minute class.
