Ep 44: Sequencing for General Shoulder Injuries


Listen Later

Shoulder injuries make me think of a lack of range of motion and overhead shoulder movement. I've been reflecting on a few times when I had shoulder issues myself and couldn't lift my arm overhead. 

Frozen shoulder was by far the worst because it was persistent pain over an extended period of time, which of course affected my personal practice and my every day life. 

When I think back on it, all of my shoulder injuries occurred in my right shoulder. So it's fair to say that my right shoulder has been through some things. 

If you want to start offering more than saying, "Do what feels right"  and teach modifications & alternative movements that will make the class more supportive of what your students need... Well, that's what this episode includes, how to alter your sequencing for students with general shoulder injuries. I'll focus on general shoulder injuries and ways you can alter or modify your sequencing and other tips in order to make your classes more accessible for students who cannot reach overhead.
