Yoga Stretching

In this session you will learn basic yoga stretches from the perspective of decompressing and compensatory movements to offset the load stress off your workouts. These movements are best described as aided recovery from load. If you have loaded up your legs in a session then you will need compensatory decompression to restore your overworked muscles so that you are recovering faster, continue to perform better and no pattern overloading which can lead to postural distortions and injury.

You will also learn to take these basic movements and put them together in linked flowing forms. We use Prasara yoga flows as the basic platform for this. Prasara yoga was developed by Coach Scott Sonnon and takes more formal yoga postures and adds linking movements to create flow drills. Prasara means to flow beyond thought and you learn how to listen to your bodies needs and move with it rather than against it.

After you have learned the principles of Prasara, then you can start to be more creative and playful in your own practice. You can link movements or poses together in your own way to get the best restoration for your own body, and also have the most fun. Prasara yoga is best thought of as a workout in its own right. It is a compensatory workout, and is a no or low intensity, but it is still a workout. These workouts replace the conventional rest days so that you are not stiffening up too much from your last workout, and are recovering for your next workout.

Repair and prepare with Prasara!
