Incorporating a Warm Up into your yoga practice prepares your body for the upcoming class and allows you to step onto your mat with ease and control. The Foundations of Weighted Yoga Warm Up includes well known poses such as Cat/Cow, Upward Facing Dog, Pigeon, Child’s Pose, Downward Facing Dog, and Forward Fold to engage various muscle groups and begin opening your range of motion.
