Build that Back Line to Lift Taller for Better Posture

Instructor: Kristine Chaussard
Level: Advanced, All Levels, Beginner, Intermediate

Focus :   

This posture improving class today will move you gently through some yummy classics to strengthen your posterior chain, or also known as your back line. This work counteracts the amount of time we spend in front of the body and helps to pull us upright again, bringing more breath into the lungs, more length and stretch throughout the torso, opening the front of the body in chest and hips and improving your posture from head to toe. Our session today is gentle but effective.

This is a new series which focuses on exercises that will integrally improve your posture with the goal in mind to sit and stand taller, but not just that, to do so with greater ease. Additionally, better posture will alleviate undue tensions, aches and pains; it will help you live and move in a more ideal alignment so your joints are happier; it will also help you move with greater ease and efficiency in all your endeavors. Better posture enables our body to better deliver fresh oxygen and blood to tissues and vitals enabling us to feel more energy, less fatigue, contributing to better longevity. The benefits are numerous and this program will help you work towards seeing these improvements in your own body.

The Course of this Class :   

Class is thoughtful with a moderate today. Enjoy the stretches and lengthening through the body as well as some yummy thoracic mobility work we will bring into today’s session.

Goals :     

Move through exercises that target our postural muscles. Focus on strengthening the deeper set of muscles which hold up our spines and keep our joints healthy and mobile. Specifically focus on posterior chain strength (the back of the body) to counteract the forward pulling force of daily activities (phones, computers, screens and more) that creates imbalance between our front and back sides often creating poor posture. Always keep the hips and pelvis strong, mobile and flexible for a healthy low back and foundation to the spine and legs below. Learn the purpose and focus of certain exercises. Empower you to feel healthier, stronger, happier and more flexible in your own body.
