Yoga for Photographers & Cinematographers - Five Parks Yoga

This yoga class focuses on low back and hips, as well as the upper back, neck and shoulders.
If you are a photographer, videographer or cinematographer , the aches and pains associated with holding, hauling and using heavy camera equipment is universal and these stretches and movements will help you release tension, tightness and tenderness in the body.
Warm up the body with deep breathing, side bends and twists, wrist, hand and finger stretches and an introduction to eagle arm variations, which will be used throughout class.
Stretch the spine and shoulder with cat/cows, thread the needle, neck releases, chest expansion and downward dog full body stretch. Deep hip stretches include wide legged low lunge, lounging lizard, deep squat (Malasana) and more.
Strengthen and stretch the chest and upper back with cobra (and variations), locust and variations. Standing poses include crescent lunge with eagle arms, warrior two, side angle, five pointed star, prayer squat with variations and twists. Further stretch the legs and hips with side lunges, (skandasana). Balance in eagle arm airplane and half moon pose, before stretching on the floor in heron pose, half lord of the fishes, supported back bends and half pigeon. Some core strengthening is sprinkled throughout.
This class will benefit ANYONE and EVERYONE who wants to strengthen and stretch the upper and lower parts of the body.

[@claudiagabler4194]

Thank you for the beautiful Flow experience, Erin! 💞🙏

[@susannastratford5847]

That was SO delicious! Thank you! I love how creative you are with addressing a particular occupation (or sport) and dialing in the healing poses. I'm not a photographer, but I definitely benefitted from this practice today.

[@kristifisher2608]

Amazing class! Such a great balance of strength and stretch in all the right places. Thank you!

[@alysonb3558]

Thank you yet again Erin!! Great sequencing. A great flow for gardeners and landscapers too!!

[@ingridamurauskiene5945]

[@suesouthcott2865]

A great start to my weekend! Thank you Erin!

[@brittanyforsman1452]

Wow I absolutely loved this class. Great job, Erin!!! Thank you for a beautiful, peaceful feeling to take into the rest of the day ❤

[@JudithTomsko]

Thank You!! This was just what I needed. Excellent yoga class for those of us who are vocal teachers who sit at the piano for long periods of time!!

[@nazokashii]

This truly was such an amazing practice :D loved it, felt great :) thank you, so much

[@krisztinanagy1626]

Thank you Erin for this awesome class and sharing it 🙏🤩🌻

[@mandyb.1804]

Wow this was AMAZING - thanks so much Erin!

[@lorrainegillingham2080]

Great class (to open up my dodgy left shoulder) . I love your clear and precise instruction delivered with such calmness! Thank you 🙏🏽 ❤

[@ThePollaton]

Finally found time for a longer class 🙏 as always ❤

[@14MTH3M00N]

This was a great session! Thank you! I´ve been following your classes for a while and i´m actually a photographer myself by chance, so this was fun :D

[@Innatefrequency]

❤ Great class!

[@hajnici]

Thank you for this creative, well-rounded flow! You are the best.

[@bethanymott3734]

My neck and shoulders have been rejuvenated! Thank you

[@karinekmk9293]

Hi Erin, I'm not a photographer but my stiff back really appreciated this class ! I just found that the transitions from reverse triangle to triangle were too quick for my rythm of breath, so I did them a bit slower. But this class felt soo good🙏🙏 If you could do a "yoga for teachers" , it would be awesome : we're on our feet all day long, walk, stop on a table, bend over to check what students write, and of course we write a lot on the white board. So : lower back, upper back, neck, knees (sometimes we have to write at the bottom of the white board), and PATIENCE are the 'areas' to target😉

[@zafiriakaramanli8445]

Thank you so much Erin for this awesome class! ☺️❤

[@ddassec]

Thanks Erin; great start to a Sunday morning. Love your classes❤

[@crisroberts2517]

Thank you, this was awesome for neck and shoulders also a great practise for long haul flight journeys Namaste Erin and Matt 🤍 To add another note I'm doing this for the 4th time this morning, its really healing my neck and shoulder.

[@barbbrazes869]

Great class! Thanks!

[@sxd29]

Thanks Erin for yet another amazing routine. Have loved your yoga routines in forever!!!!!! ❤. Quick Q - I was surprised to note that you didn’t include the “bridge with hands clasped underneath” and “reverse namaste - in the back”. Aren’t those considered good for stretching muscles in the shoulder area as well? I was trying to figure your thought process, thats all. Thanks again, namaste 🙏

[@kelseyfatland8012]

Great idea for a class Matt and Erin, thanks to you both! ❤

[@olgaomalley4829]

Woohoo 🥳 another class, thank you so much Erin 🙏🏻

[@ninazadurian5111]

Once again, another great class. I’m loving these Saturday yoga classes, thanks Erin !

[@mollymcnallyroberts]

That felt so good! Thank you.

[@leahthekay]

Excellent for guitar players and jewelry makers as well!!

[@camilledeklerk7006]

This is the first Yoga I've done since giving birth. It was exactly what I needed to aleviate a tight back from holding a baby and tight hips from giving birth then being stagnant. Thank you for this, you always deliver (no pun intended) ! That being said, do you have any post partum videos? A little pelvic floor+light abs+free flow+back release action, maybe?

[@florbisagno]

Thank You 🙏

[@mariaaldinger4446]

Amazing!! Thank you 🙏🏻
