45-Min Full Body Flexibility Recording

Who this class recording is for:

This 45-minute class is intended for anyone looking for a flexibility routine that helps cover their whole body in under one hour: hips (from multiple angles!), back, and shoulders.

Even if you are a super beginner and can’t touch your toes, this is a great class for you! In this class I was joined by my partner Nate (who you may recognize from the Can’t Touch Your Toes? 8 Beginner-Friendly Hamstring Stretches blog post). Nate is a great example of what a more “average” level of flexibility looks like, and helps show some modifications for students with stiffer bodies.

What this class includes:

• A quick full-body warm-up to get you ready to stretch

• Active flexibility exercises for hips, back, and shoulders (don’t worry newbies, there’s passive stretching in this too)

• For beginners: mobility drills for hips and shoulders, stretches to work towards touching your toes, exercises and stretches to work on your hip and shoulder flexibility in multiple ranges of motion

• For more intermediate students: stretches to prepare you for front splits, middle splits, and full-body backbending (that means shoulders too!)

Recommended props: Yoga blocks - totally optional, but they are a wonderful prop, especially if you’re a beginner. If you don’t have blocks, I recommend practicing next to a chair, your bed, or a wall so you can reach your hand out for balance if you need to.
