In today's episode I cover what to do instead of a seated forward fold. Tune in for a few alternative poses that will give you a better, safer stretch.

In today's episode I cover what to do instead of a seated forward fold. I get this question a lot. When I say I never do it, I'm not saying it’s wrong. If it feels good, I'm not telling you not to do it. But I'm offering you some other ways to get that same feel-good sensation from a forward fold. When people do a seated four fold, and they really love it, what they love is the feeling of that pull. Because the back part of the body, if we're flexing a lot during the day, meaning we're just compressed, that back part of the body wants to do the opposite. So we want to open that up and extend it. Tune in for a few alternative poses that will give you a better, safer stretch.

Today's episode is all about connecting to your core without doing abs. In other words, the traditional kind of sit-ups or anything that involves getting on the floor. I really love doing those at the beginning of class because there's something about awakening these muscles before you ask them to do the job that they're supposed to do, which is primarily to hold your center steady and strong so that you can move your limbs with ease.

Today's podcast is all about knee pain. I have so many people ask me on a regular basis what they can do about the pain that they are experiencing in the knee or knees, and the knee is one of the most common body parts to get injured. The types of knee pain that people experience are due to a variety of causes and a lot of it is to do with the anatomy of the knee itself. The most common thing that I deal with is overuse injuries, but so much of this can be avoided or can be remedied when you work on your overall mechanics of the body, and that starts with how you stand.
