Focus: This tutorial style class brings together an array of yoga poses that help to improve mobility in the shoulders. The 35 minute class is long enough to be able to penetrate and bring about change, but short enough for you to be able to squeeze into your schedule. If you are wanting to focus on this area and make some improvements then this class will be a great one to regularly practice. It can also be combined with other classes from the library.

All the basic shoulder opening poses are worked with in detail here. Classical yoga poses are combined with adapted poses that highlight specific therapeutic benefits. In addition to increasing mobility you will work with movements that strengthen and stabilise.
