Holiday Hamstrings: Yoga for Healthy Hamstrings
Many families serve a holiday ham to celebrate the season, but how many of us honor our own hamstrings? Why focus on the HAMstrings during the holidays? Puns aside, our hamstrings play a key role in stabilising the knee joint and assist us in everyday movement such as walking, running, and jumping. Tight (or shortened hamstring) are a common contributor to lower back pain. What better gift to give yourself than more ease and mobility?
This is a virtual Yoga training series. We strongly recommend you attend all of the sessions to get the most out of this program. You will also be encouraged to use the recording of the classes to practice on your own. What will you learn?- practice techniques to lengthen and strengthen the hamstrings
- learn tips for caring for your hamstrings in simple practical ways - discuss the anatomy of hamstrings - practice meditation & breathwork for stress relief (and reduce production of cortisol) |
