Functional Strength Practice
Yoga and Meditation

1h 3m
This full practice has something for everyone. It is part two of the fall prevention practice and builds strength and range of motion to move from squatting and lunging to standing, and from seated to lunging to standing. As with any form of movement or exercise, please consult with your physician and make sure there are no medical reasons why you should not perform some of these exercises. My aim is to make yoga as accessible as possible. Your task is to listen to your own body (your best teacher) and not move in any way that causes pain or discomfort.
