Yoga for Better Posture Class - Five Parks Yoga

This 25 minute yoga class focuses on postures that strengthen muscles along the spine, and stretch the shoulders and the chest. Postures include heart melting, spinal balance, cobra, locust with chest expansion, warrior 3, reverse table and plank, cow face, modified wild thing, supported fish. Throughout the entire yoga class, modifications are offered and there is instruction for the use of props to take your practice deeper. I loved teaching this class as upper body opening and good posture has been a struggle for me. I hope you enjoy.

Holy Crikey. I was *not* expecting that. I often search for 'yoga classes for better posture' and am usually disappointed because they often end up being not so focussed. That was great!

[@FiveParksYoga]

I'm glad that this was a helpful class and that you liked it!

[@pauljbrewer]

I had so much pressure in my neck from my bad posture, that supported fish is quickly becoming my fav. pose

[@ingridamurauskiene5945]

Thank you Erin💗 Namaste🙏

[@sharonpasquale1572]

This was excellent. After sitting at a microscope all night, this was just what my body was craving! Thank you !

[@negin7693]

This was perfect. Thank you so much.

[@badarock177]

What? I just made a search "Yoga for better posture" and one hour after that you post this!!! Thank you!

[@veedubya8463]

I love the sounds of the wildlife in the background of your Costa Rica videos. They are so soothing :)

[@FiveParksYoga]

Glad you like them!

[@HappyBelly10]

Beginner level with a lot of explanation. The sit-up straight pose at the beginning of the class is the hardest but simplest pose. Lots of chest expansions!

[@jacquelinerideout9487]

Love this ! So helpful !

[@FiveParksYoga]

I'm glad you liked it!

[@carolinegee9571]

Love the supported fish pose. I could stay in that posture forever! Thank you!

[@FiveParksYoga]

I agree Caroline, it's such a grounding and opening pose!

[@ginagreen5789]

I love every class of yours and this one is no exception! My back and shoulders feel AMAZING! I'm definitely going to include this in my practice 3-4 times a week!

[@raveenahayer808]

Amazing class Erin! Thank you so much! Namaste ❤️

[@KimmiRecuenco]

Been practicing this video for quite some time already. Before I couldn't do cow face pose on my left side, but as I consistently practice this, eventually I was able to do it. I do really feel my body align and loosen up with your online classes. Thank you for this, Erin! Sending love and light all the way from sunny Philippines!

[@FiveParksYoga]

Your welcome! I'm so glad that you were able to reach your goal of doing the cow face pose! I'm glad you like my videos!

[@PK-sr8hr]

This was perfect after an intense upper body workout. Thanks Erin!!

[@gwenfaulkner660]

What. A. Perfect. Class!!!! I loved it so much, this was an addition this morning for me after a super 30' Forrest Yoga class. Thank you Erin, your classes are lifesavers. They all feel so good in my body, I feel as if these were made especially and personally for me. Thank you for all you and Matt do with these amazing classes. Keep them coming! :) Love from Budapest!

[@chantalvanvelzen]

This was wonderful after a long day in front of a computer. Thank you very much Erin! 💖🙏🏼

[@solstrale3136]

Beautiful video, thank you.

[@elissamcgahren8473]

Love your classes!

[@joannazaytouni4958]

wow what an amazing class! thank you.

[@marinamandaric7872]

Better posture is something that I always strugling with, so this is going to be very helpful for me...thank you...

[@christinelamb1167]

This was such a perfect class for me today! I just returned from an extremely long overseas flight journey 5 days ago, and needless to say all that sitting in a cramped space really took a toll on my body. I have been doing yoga, and also my regular workouts this week, but this practice in particular has really made my back and shoulders feel so much better. I also did Erin's Strength and Stretch for Hips and Butt right after this one, and that was an awesome class as well! I feel really great now, with both upper and lower body strengthened and stretched out. Wow, I needed that! Thanks Erin:) Namaste

[@marjoryleposky4328]

Thank you!! :)

[@annateittinen9809]

Good morning Erin! I just did this routine after my morning workout session! Whole body feels so so good! Thank you so much always! And you are indeed tall at 5' 10"! I'm only 5' 1"! LOL! Have a wonderful day! :-)

[@ShraddaNiche]

Awesome. I am shooting for the fall retreat!!! Namaste

[@FiveParksYoga]

I hope you can make it! :)

[@amandalynn9741]

Erin, would you ever consider doing online yoga teacher training (with monthly payments)? I absolutely love your KZbin channel and your style of yoga and how great of a teacher you are I've been following you for quite some time now and it would be awesome if that was an option! I've wanted to do teacher training for years now but its hard to fit my schedule into going to a studio and or traveling, why not do it from home with my favorite instructor! :)

[@seeshah75]

Hi, love your practices for stretching, could you share anything for sciatica? Thank you

[@SavannahStuermer]

Looks great! was waiting for your next upload. Was wondering if you would be interested in filming a 108 sun salutation video? I think this would be so wonderful, it is such a great practice, great ritual and would LOVE to practice it from you! Thanks for all you do. Namaste.

[@jazzrivera2367]

amazing!

[@ccunni3812]

thank you

[@bracedback]

This is a great video! I have uploaded a few yoga time lapses as I practice yoga everyday. I just wanted to say well done and keep up the good work! I would love to support each other if you wanted, well done xxx

[@DianaDistorted]

Oh wow, that was just what the doctor ordered. Since last night I've been having horrible upper back pain from sitting poorly. Now it's melted away! I know this is an older video but if you read this and would consider doing more posture routines I would be very grateful. You have a gift!
