Spinal Alignment: Hyperkyphosis!

Instructor:
Michael Kaffel
Description:
Due to all the stuff we do with our arms out in front of us (driving, computers), many of us have developed a really tight chest and shoulders, and hyperkyphosis of the thoracic spine. This class will help to mobilize the shoulders and thoracic spine and help to restore the stability of the scapulae. (This class is a replay from a few years ago…enjoy!)
Equipment Needed:
Half Dome, Block, Bolster, Elastic Tubing (light resistance, preferably with flexible handles)

Instructor:
Breena Maggio
Description:
Oh my. This will be amazing if you have any neck tension, hyperkyphosis (extra forward curve in your upper spine), or work at a desk or on a computer. You’ll gain mobility and release a ton of tension.
Equipment Needed:
Half Dome, Block, Pair of YTU balls or tennis balls in a sock

Instructor:
Tim Harris
Description:
This class will address the neck and its relationship to the rest of the body that it sits on top of.
Equipment Needed:
Half Dome, Block

Instructor:
Breena Maggio
Description:
Muscular strength requires appropriate muscle length. To prepare for some weight bearing and increased resistance, we will first work on opening up around the shoulder joint, and then gradually increase the workload for the upper body, finishing with lovely forearm stretches.
Equipment Needed:
Half Dome, Block, Elastic Tubing (light resistance, preferably with flexible handles), Light Weight, Foam Roller
