Equal parts stretches + exercises that open the neck and shoulders while also strengthening our underworking muscles to prevent future neck and upper shoulder tightness and tension.
Up Next in Season 1

movement for chest opening
A feel-good way to relieve shoulder + chest tightness which will allow the spine to open + make it easier to breathe.
Props: we recommend a foam roller but a thick blanket can substitute
-
these arms of mine
No time to waste in this class where we'll go through 2 short sequences to get the shoulders moving and build strength in the arms + upper back.
Props: light hand weights (1-3 lbs or bottles of water, etc. whatever you have available!)

prone back strengthers to open the chest
We're bringing all we know about our shoulders together in this class as we work all of our postural muscles, with an extra focus on our deep stabilizers of the back, creating a sleek + strong back, opening the chest, and improving alignment.
