Take Your Flexibility and Yoga Practice To The Next Level

I would like to share with you this 5 part video series that I’ve created on how to intensify your flexibility, mobility and yoga practice in general. It includes not only advanced ways to stretch the hips and hamstrings but also on strengthening the shoulders and wrists. These are things I do in yoga class to make better use of my time, because the teachers don’t generally cue it as they tend to cater to all levels of mixed students, but if you are craving for advancement, this is the real deal! Oh and the best part is my dog Medax is in all of them!
