If you’ve ever gone into a dressing room , tried

If you’ve ever gone into a dressing room , tried on clothes and nothing fit, you must listen to this @radiolab podcast episode with @radhradke !

I just ordered the book.

As someone who worked in fashion, and now in fitness, butts are a big deal in both industries.

This podcast episode examines the intersection of race, control, liberation and power with regard to butts.

If you love, sociology and evolutionarily biology as much as I do, you’ll enjoy listening to this.

I shared the link to the episode in my stories.

If you listen, I’d love to hear your thoughts.

Especially about how the dark shadow of the “Norma and Normman” statues have influenced how anatomy is taught in modern postural yoga teacher trainings, Pilates teacher trainings, etc. Repost @avidreaderpress with @use.repost

I’m often asked why I’ve never liked classical Pilates. It’s always a question from someone who doesn’t know me well enough yet to know I am not a rule follower. #ihatedumbrules

Part 2. Things that are not tolerated in classical Pilates. Because y’all asked for it.

I really wish some of these were just a joke.

I’ve been programming lots of landmine lifts for my clients and several of them are working on moving explosively so I tried out this pounce squat after watching a YouTube tutorial from @landmineuniversity

It makes me feel like leopard 🐆 🎉. It’s fun and challenging!

Here’s one of my favorite ways to train Internal

Here’s one of my favorite ways to train Internal and external rotation of the shoulder. ⁣
⁣
I call it the Yoga Sommelier because it reminds me of when a sommelier places their arm behind their back while serving wine.⁣

A couple of the many challenging aspects of the Yoga Sommelier are to avoid dropping your head and/or pelvis forward in space as your arms move behind your back. ⁣
⁣
The heavier the blanket, the harder it is:). ⁣
⁣
As you hit the 2 positions of internal and external rotation again and again, you will likely start to feel your:⁣
⁣
1. Upper back muscles working to keep your chest up ⁣
⁣
2. Deep neck flexors working to keep your head from poking forward⁣
⁣
And many other things 😉
⁣
Managing the blanket so that it doesn’t slide off is another fun challenge! ⁣
⁣
This is one of the exercises from Chapter 8 in my book, which teaches you how to sequence classes and is a clip from one of the videos in the book’s video companion.

Want to learn how to teach these movements and sequences in depth?

My Yoga Deconstructed® Book Video Companion is a tool designed to help you do just that. 😉 It’s ON SALE until TONIGHT 11:59 pm Sunday, November 20th along with some of my other favorite online classes + workshops.

For a long time, it was really popular to use the

For a long time, it was really popular to use the term corrective exercise. However, modern movement science research has now found that we can’t really correct movement, so much as we can...
⁣
* Give people more strategies to create more movement options, because the body is most resilient when it can move in diverse ways⁣

* Enhance proprioception to improve movement accuracy and control⁣

* Progressively load the tissues to improve strength and adaptability to stress⁣
⁣
While I used to use the word corrective exercise, I don’t anymore for this reason. Rather, in my book and on social media, I now use the term preparatory exercises instead.
⁣
I think this is a more accurate depiction of how we help our students, because the goal isn’t to “correct” anyone’s movement patterns. It’s to help students prepare their body for their activities of choice and life.⁣

If you’re looking to update your teaching and get some ideas on how to help you and your students prepare their bodies, then check out my Pre-Black Friday Sale on some of my courses and classes.

It’s never too late to start lifting weights 🏋️ Repost @trustmephysiotherapist with @use.repost ・・・ Great post by @squat_university: “Did you know that lifting weights can be one of the best things for your bones! It doesn’t matter how old you are - lifting can help you build stronger bones & decrease your risk of osteoporosis & fractures as you age. That’s why I always say “lifting weights is the true fountain of youth.” . Shout out @rudykadlub for being such an excellent model for how we should continue living a life of strength!”$
