{video} Alternate Bookend Series: Calf Smasher

There are so many reasons to change up the way we both start and end our classes. Just a few might be:

  • Starting a private lesson in a traditional seated centering might not have the intended benefit.
  • People spend too much time sitting already!
  • Spending a lot of time in passive stretching might feel relaxing, but can also destabilize our students’ joints.
  • Spending a lot of time in passive seated stretching is not comfortable or relaxing for a lot of people!
  • Ending a private lesson in a traditional savasana might not have the intended benefit.

This is the beginning of an ongoing series with a bunch of creative ways to avoid spending too much time in traditional seated poses. This first video introduces the Calf Smasher!Let me know how it goes when you give this a try with your students!
