Yoga for Reversing Rounded Shoulders and Upper Back
with Brooke Margherone

In our forward thinking society, it’s very common today to develop rounded shoulders, roundness through your middle back, collapsed chest, tightness between the ribs, and tension in the upper back, but it’s not normal, nor will it support the longevity of your body and overall health. 

These issue could arise due to your profession, lifestyle, carrying your children around, or from stress over time. No matter the reason, if you’re experience any of the issues above, this workshop will teach you how to find relief and return to the natural neutral placement of the head, neck, shoulders, and spine.

 A variety of postures will be explored to encourage full range of motion of the shoulder girdle and stabilize the shoulder blades. The benefits of these postures include increasing range of motion in the shoulder girdle allowing the body to remember the innate shoulder girdle placement, better posture and blood flow in the upper body, head and neck, improved breathing, decrease tension within the rib cage, stronger back muscles, opened chest, neck, and relaxed throat and face. 

The breakdown of yoga postures with the specific movement principles for shoulder health will be practiced together in detail allowing for questions and modifications unique for the group. Each attendee will leave with the sequence and the modifications right for them so they can go on to practice on their own with confidence and continue to improve the health and alignment in the upper body.

All levels welcomed and encouraged to attend. No prior experience necessary.
