Guest Sequence: Strengthening and Shaping our Shoulders
In April, my most popular post wasn't about my travails as a yoga instructor, it wasn't a sequence to tone your tush or sculpt your abs, and it definitely wasn't a yoga inspired food recipe (most of you probably know by now-- cooking isn't my forte).
In April, my most popular post wasn't by me at all, but by the lovely Alison Fellers of Yoga Landing in Chattanooga, Tennessee. I loved how, in that sequence, we started facing the back of the room and quickly ended up facing the right way. Speaking personally, I know I can get so set in my routine, that a shake up can change my whole perspective on my practice and my habits. There's a few excellent surprises in this sequence as well.
So, if in April my most popular post was Alison's... let's help make it the most popular for August! You'll enjoy it so much, I'm sure it will be.
