Yoga Pose of the Day: For Dancers

Dancers spend all day on their feet. Viparita Karani (Legs-Up-The-Wall Pose) is a great pose for them to take all of that tension off their legs and feet. It also reduces tension in your back and neck (so for those of you with back pain, this is a great go-to pose that you can do anywhere).
  • Lay down on the floor so that you are facing the wall. 
  • Bring your butt all the way up against the wall. 
  • Let your feet go straight up. 
  • Relax and breathe. 
Hold this pose 5-15 minutes. 

You always have the option of placing a blanket or bolster underneath you as well for support.
