Mobilize your spine, major joints, and muscles to build strength, increase range of motion, and support immune function. Move gently with us as we build inner warmth and release tension from head to toe. Through slow coordinated sound, breath, and bodywork we oxygenate the body, lubricate the joints, and alleviate inflammation and pain as we gently build strength, balance, and flexibility. This practice can be done seated or standing.

Participants are encouraged to move within their comfortable range of motion. This class offers accessible variations of each movement to accommodate diverse mobility levels and includes rehabilitation-focused movements to support individuals with reduced mobility as they recover from injuries.

Equipment Needed:

Chair

Yoga Block

Water

Areas of focus:

• Directed breathing and sound vibrations create warmth in our bodies, release tension, support each movement, and energize us with a good dose of oxygen.
• Spine extensions, rotations, and side-bends awaken our neck, back, and core, to support each movement.
• Squat and lunge patterns for hip, knee, and ankle mobility as well as core, glute, and leg strength. Build lower boy strength and stability.
• Shoulder mobility exercises improve range of motion and reduce pain with gentle shoulder and upper back mobility exercises.
• Major joints are gradually activated (including shoulders, elbows, hips, wrists, ankles, and knees) to reduce swelling, increase range of motion, and promote a healthy immune response.
• Balance play challenges our core and overall stability as we reach and stretch from side to side.
• Flexibility—from neck, shoulders, mid and lower spine to IT band (outer hip and thigh), calves, and feet we'll perform slow movements or hold for a few breaths to find deeper release.
