Post Workout Yoga Class for Tired, Sore Muscles - Five Parks Yoga

This yoga class is designed to be practiced any time you are feeling muscle soreness, fatigue or tension after a workout, (or anytime!). This 20-minute class begins in Child’s pose with side stretches. Spine stretches include cat/cow and thread the needle. Following a spinal warm up, there is one downward dog- (for a hamstring and hip stretch), followed by a variety of shoulder stretches. The second part of the class includes stretches for the legs like hero, butterfly, forward fold and more. The final portion of the class includes reclined postures like pigeon and belly twisting posture.
This class was filmed on my back porch during the middle of a Costa Rican rainstorm, (which lasted for days). At about 13 minutes, the rain really starts coming down. It gets a little loud, but you can still hear my voice. I hope you enjoy the rainstorm - I just had to finish this great class!!!

I wish every yoga class had that rain as a soundtrack! Brings me to such a peaceful place

[@bridgetslavin1084]

I'd forgotten jus how good Erin is. So pleased to return to these classes 😊

[@kimo4186]

First time doing your yoga stretching. I loved this first one I chose-perfect for after a heavy lift day and before my walk. I loved the healing sounds of the rain and your gentle guidance. Thank you!

[@susanblackwell7763]

My absolutely favorite yoga video! The pisces in my loves all that water!

[@RishisMaRothy]

This was an awesome 20 minutes for me.. the rain sound worked like meditation to me.

[@evecarter617]

That's so cool that you are doing yoga while it's raining

[@sistersarahc]

Another of dear Erin’s hidden gems.

[@TheBlackJewelz]

Absolutely. One of my favs. Literally have played it almost every day since it was posted

[@Skrao09]

Loved d natural rain part too

[@wendicoffelt5234]

Great stretch class for fatigued muscles

[@sistersarahc]

Yoga that feels good. No workout necessary beforehand.

[@lisaide8289]

Lovely end to my strength workout today! I only wish I could be there in the Costa Rican rain!

[@lauradiez6435]

I found the sound of the rain in the background very soothing, very appropriate for this workout!!! Thank you very much, Erin!!

[@koreystoeckel5453]

This is my new favorite post-workout stretch. I loved it! Thank you for what you do. 💗

[@leapfrog4561]

I love a good tropical rain fall. Thanks so much!

[@nathalierobitaille7686]

love the sound of the rain! 💛

[@8karenwalker]

Erin, you are a genius putting these classes together! It's just what my body needed after my workout. I truly appreciate your yoga classes, and I LOVE the rain! Watching it in the background and listening to the downpour just enhanced my yoga experience. The Shavasana song is always so nice to hear. Thanks for so much wisdom and love in your Spirit! You inspire me :-)

[@NessStephanie]

My favourite class of all times :) downpour yoga

[@karenno]

Do this video and several other of the Five Parks deep stretch videos (plus many of the others, of course). They're so good. Instruction is clear. Voice is kind. Energy is welcoming. Love your content, Erin. Thank you.

[@FiveParksYoga]

Thanks for your kind words! I loved filming this one, it was such a cool environment :) Have a great day!!

[@chanelm5308]

Very nice class; I loved the rain too. It all combined really helped get my muscles to release and relax

[@mattcoker1385]

wow. i think every yoga video should have a downpour. you're a pro, thank you

[@celsocaceresjr150]

I highly recommend this yoga series. You are an excellent instructor and it is so well executed at high positive energy. So grateful for your work. Ty 🙏💪

[@angelacanonico4820]

I'm so glad I came across your video woke up stiff and tight from yesterday's full body workout. I really enjoyed the stretches and the sound of rain it was yummy. Near the end before savasana, I paused the video and did some other stretches my body was needing before sealing the practice. I saved this video to come back to it again. Thank you 🙏🏼

[@AllyPenguin]

I always come back to this one, it's one of my favorites after the gym or when I'm really tense and stressed. I hold a lot of it in my shoulders and this one hits the spot!

[@rtw8609]

Absolutely loved this class--I have been feeling tight and uneven and did a quick search through your videos when I got back from tonight's 3-mile run in the Louisiana heat. Listening to the rain in the background made the class that much better ❤

[@corilevitt902]

This class is a great choice for day 6 of your 30 day yoga challenge. Really needed it after day 5, yoga for runners. My legs were tried after that one! Looking forward to day 7. Thanks Erin!!

[@jinheelee842]

Thank you so much for this class Erin! The rain sound was so soothing for me on this Wednesday morning. Perfect way to start my day.

[@irisfeng6554]

Thank you for this! I love the downpour! So therapeutic!

[@nataliafnorman]

This class is a soothing balm. Thanks Erin! 🙏🏻

[@MarySmith-ew5fr]

The best stretch session ever! Never disappoints. :)

[@annateittinen9809]

Hello Erin! Its night time for me here near San Francisco and I just did this yoga class after returning from work at 8pm. Feels so good! Thank you so much always for your amazing classes! Have a wonderful day! :-)

[@susanharis8247]

I love this rainy relaxation

[@magdalenamccay]

That’s a lot of rain! Great class. Thank you.

[@WhatDidAdamSay]

Wow feeling so much better. Woke up walking stiff from soreness. Also, you did the thing that nobody does. I'll do yoga on KZbin, it will end in savasana....10 seconds in they say namaste and a SUPER loud ad plays and pulls me out of my yoga zen immediately. It was nice to have an extended savasana and highly recommend more yogis add 2 mins of music (or this amazing rain!) if they're going to end in savasana. Thanks for making my Tuesday better.

[@barbrisucci1147]

Absolutely perfect after a bike ride. Loved the rain! I love all your classes!

[@miaarcher4831]

i love this this helped my muscles and they where so sore

[@kaylacruse2711]

That was wonderful! Ty so much Erin! Love & light to you beautiful soul. Namaste!

[@ladymarion08]

[@amandinedine5718]

The sound of rain was so relaxing and calming. Thank you #day6

[@sweetneverbitter6109]

Felt amazing after doing this post workout practice!

[@bethdavis2228]

Hi Erin, hope you are doing well in your recovery journey. I enjoyed this class today. It really hit the spot!

[@ibolyakelemen5377]

Thank you Erin!I have never been fan of yoga classes, but as I found your classes here, you do something different. I do lot of cardio, and muscular trainings, so your videos are really helpful to relax my body after workouts. Thank you :)

[@trudywalker7203]

Just another great class ! 2 mini classes in a row , I feel great now! Love the rain 💝🙏☮️🇨🇦💕

[@AnniLloyd]

My go to post work stretch, just perfect 👌 thank you Erin 🌟🌟❤️

[@mtcr20]

I have loved many of your classes for years and just found this one. Perfect timing as I've been training for a 10k and pushing it a bit. Suuuuuch a GREAT post run /workout stretch!! Thank you!!

[@user-wb3nm5zf2y]

This was a great class to do right after a nice 30 minute steady state jog!

[@ZHamed-sz5vt]

One of the best post workout yoga streatches I've done so far Thank you 👏👏

[@helenfk7871]

Loved this, with background rain sounds a bonus 🌧💚

[@anitamarieshaw598]

Wonderful again. I could use that rain for my garden in CA! Hope that you didn't get wet and chilly.

[@hyao70]

Thank you for all of your stretching classes, hands free yoga. High quality videos and truly appreciated. I find myself coming back to your channel.

[@jillfoster5393]

This was a great practice after doing yard work all day💜

[@peanutforever2191]

I am sometimes quite lazy to do stretching after workouts and just want it to be over quickly, and these 25 minutes just flew by, it felt like it had barely begun when it already ended. It was awesome but, really, all your videos are. It was pretty cool how you weren't fazed by being drenched in some crazy Costa Rican downpour. :) Thank you for another great class!

[@robertogetto8585]

Great session I keep coming back to, even if I haven’t exercised. Namaste

[@dwaynebabb4044]

Hi Erin, this flow so was well designed and really helped after a challenging power Yoga workout. Loved the sequence, the thought put into each exercise and the rain in the background was pretty relaxing. Thank you for sharing this video.

[@taniarodriguez580]

We need more deep stretch/post-workout yoga series please🙏🏼

[@NinaPerezDanceTodayThriveToday]

Thank you for the wonderful stretch. I enjoyed when you mentioned what each stretch was doing to the body and what parts were involved. Really appreciate you!

[@k.hansenrn7093]

Erin, this is just what I needed to start the morning.Last week was intense work outs and a weekend of yard work. I love your work mostly you sun sal with hubby and guitar it never gets old. Thank you.Have a Beautiful Day

[@stephanieneifeld5684]

[@CND2023]

i always do your yoga, its really so relieving after each work out n loves the way you talk, the background rain drops n some light music, your instructions is loud n clear enough. Thank you so much

[@Trishmary37]

Kudos to you, Erin, for filming in that downpour! It reminded me of when I was driving through Costa Rica and thexrain washed part of the road away. We watched as workers shoveled mud back onto the road before continuing. This was a great stretch!

[@anjiehipple]

I love the rain, powerful and peaceful. Namaste, Erin. 🦋

[@p.spring]

Thank you for doing this in the rain in Costa Rica. One of my favorite countries. For these 23 minutes I was there instead of here in the city during COVID.

[@sonsha9560]

Excellent post workout definitely! Thanks!

[@oneofdots]

Monday morning, lots to do ahead, and sore from a hike from yesterday so I decided to take it easy and did this to start my week calmly. I LOVE the sound of rain and found it so healing & rejuvenating. Thank you, thank you! ❤️

[@dianne8005]

The rainy background just made this class better

[@FiveParksYoga]

I'm glad you liked it!

[@Jenannb]

You put such great stretch yoga classes always go back to you.

[@patriciacampbell5193]

Perfect once again ❄️❄️❤️

[@ebethansen]

Our locations couldn’t be more different-I needed a class to stretch after a day of ski touring-but OH did this do the trick. A great practice to gently, but deeply stretch the whole body. Thank you!

[@carolinegee9571]

That a gorgeous rainfall behind you! Thanks for helping me release tightness after yesterday’s workout!

[@i.care.about.you.podcast]

I did this class after your 108 sun salutations class the day before. It was so so so healing for the sore muscles I woke up with! It just so happened to be raining at my house as well (though not as hard). I LOVED it! Thank you so much, Erin!

[@chriswellington7379]

Oh I needed this! Bookmarked for sure🧘🙏🏻

[@putticweet]

Such awesome stretches and the beautiful sound of the rain enhanced the whole experience. Nature does rock and is so healing. Thank you for doing the shoot with the rain ! 🙏❤☺😘

They are always well thought out and sequenced perfectly! ☔️🌴

My sore postworkout muscles feel allot better than before this video! I could not kneel at first. My quads hurt too much but later into the video I could kneel and my quads feel better! ☺️ Thank you so much!

[@CND2023]

I loves this video a lot, i do this post work out yoga class most of the time, it helps a lot to ease the sore in certain parts esp when i do my tabata n really have sore legs/arms... this is a really must do workout... thanks for your really clear directions... i have done it so much i almost remember the steps without the video, n i loves your cute video about your recording moments with wild animals around... it really makes laugh but i enjoy it... its so nice to do yoga in an open air area with plenty of natures surrounding n with the rain drops behind... its so soothing along with the music u play... thanks a lot Erin... loves your videos, am gonna start some other of your vids soon...
