DETAIL + DEPTH | Next is part 4 of 6 of the Yoga Chair ab roller series. Place a bolster under the mid-lower thoracic spine, and a rolled up blanket at the crease of the hips. Take the same movements as part 3 (previous post, slide 2). The bolster will give the torso more lift, which will change where the effort is in the pose. A rolled-up blanket at the hips (in comparison to the bolster used in the previous pose) allows for deeper hip flexion by bringing the thighs even closer to the chest. This also allows the knees to come closer to the outer shoulders, which is where we want to be for the peak pose, Firefly Pose. Bring the arms to the inside of the legs but separate the hands wider than the chair. Use the legs to squeeze the arms. Stay and breathe, and repeat 5-8 times. © 2018 Ellen Huang Saltarelli #detailanddepth #alignmentyoga#yogaalignment #Yoga #chairyoga #yogachair #yogaprops #propyourpose #yogapractice#yogaeverydamnday#practiceandalliscoming #iyengaryoga #fireflypose #tittibhasana #yogaabroller #abwork #corework #yogaforeverybody (at Los Angeles, California) https://www.instagram.com/p/Bntg8VVhDeS/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1jgwlrtvmcuoa
