Nooks & Crannies: 360 around the neck & shoulders

Instructor:
Breena Maggio
Description:
Really focusing on motion AT the shoulder joint (versus movement OF the shoulder joint) we’ll look at not only the passive range of motion, but also the strength to move about the joint, and opening up the musculature that might be inhibiting some of the motion.
Equipment Needed:
Half Dome, (2) Blocks, Blanket, YTU balls (or tennis balls or pinkie balls)

Instructor:
Breena Maggio

Half Dome, Bolster, Light Weight (3-5lbs)

Equipment Needed:
Bolster, Half Dome, Strap
