Focus

Improve your shoulder mobility and target the rotator cuff with this shoulder opening class. Explore asanas that have been specifically adapted to focus on the rotator cuff. The class includes a sequence of poses that enhance rotator cuff health. The rotator cuff, a group of four muscles and tendons, aids arm rotation and raising. Repeatedly raising your arms without proper alignment can lead to cuff irritation and inflammation. With this in mind the sequence includes several yoga poses that pull the upper arm bone back into the socket thus creating space and relieving shoulder pain. Poses that improve range of motion are also included helping you to unlock the full potential of your shoulder joint. This class is ideal for those focusing on the rotator cuff and seeking better shoulder health and mobility.

  1. Found this class really worked into areas of a tight shoulder that has been grumbling away for sometime. I will use this one regularly to help realign and open. Soooo good ☺️
