Yoga Poses For Knee Strength – Weekly Intermediate Class 300

Join To Start Course

Focus

This 20-minute class is specifically designed to enhance the strength of your knee muscles. Through a combination of yoga poses, we specifically target the quadriceps muscles, including the vital vastus medialis located on the inner side of your front thigh near the knee. This particular muscle plays a critical role in maintaining knee stability and proper kneecap tracking, ensuring smooth and healthy movement as your leg bends. In this class, you will engage in various standing poses that offer a unique perspective on knee alignment. These poses actively involve your knees and deliver specific benefits tailored to their strengthening. Additionally, we have incorporated modified versions of the seated pose dandasana to emphasise actions that strengthen the vastus medialis. This class is especially beneficial for individuals facing knee difficulties as it provides effective support. However, it is also suitable for anyone interested in optimising and safeguarding their knee health. Practicing this class will not only strengthen your knees, but you will also help you to develop a deeper understanding of their functionality.
