For day THREE 3️⃣ of #yogaFUNfdations we have Upward Facing Dog (urdhvamukha svasana). I'm demonstrating the full vinyasa transition to show you all the steps together. Remember, it's not too late to join the FUN! 🤸🏼♀️BREAKDOWN: From #chataranga, on an inhale, the heads of the shoulders roll up and back, the arms straighten, and the feet are flipped for #upwardfacingdog. The head is gazing forward or slightly up. It is important to engage the rhomboid muscles (between the shoulder blades) to open the chest and protect the rotator cuff. Sternum is lifting while the tailbone is lengthening down and back toward the heels. Thighs are engaged and lifted off of the ground. The lifting of the thighs is important for keeping the lower back safe. Toes are pressing back and the tops of the feet are grounded. All ten toenails are pressing firmly into the ground to keep the ankles stable. Be sure to check out the other hosts for modifications AND intensifications! 🌈AMAZING SPONSORS: @incrediblemood @youphoriayoga @soffeactive @hottieyogawear @liforme @onzie #onziegear @Bracelets.by.LisaNorthern @zenrosegarden @Moonshine_Dreams_bc @justalittlecharm @mymatmymantra 🌸FAB HOSTS: @free.the.girl @yogabypaige @minnesotayogini @lightfulyogini @beautifulyou_today #yoga #asana #practice #be #move #lifestyle #fitfam #yogaeverywhere #yogaeverydamnday #yogamedicine #igyoga #ypod #fit #fitness #igyogis #yogi #yogini #workout #yogagirl #yogapose #yogisofig #sweat #yogalover #yogagram #yogainspiration #bbg (at Sea Ranch, California)
