Hatha yoga is a slower practice that allows you to hold lengthening poses for a longer amount of time. It involves breath, body, and mind as you're invited to find your muscle's edge with each move. This particular Hatha practice is perfect for anyone with tight legs or hamstrings, runners, cyclists and those who lift weights will find this class nourishing.
Jayme explains that this class will create mobility in your muscles through stretching and strengthening. Through the class, you'll be asked to find your hamstring's edge with opportunities to release and try again. If you're keen to find mobility in your hamstrings you can do some of these poses daily!
This class uses a yoga mat and yoga blocks. If you don't have blocks at home, you can use a stiff pillow, a stack of books or anything similar you have around your home that is stable and supports you in the same way. Jayme also uses a yoga strap for this class. If you don't have access to one of these you can use a belt, workout band or a scarf.
