Why Movement matters.

Movement is life.

Life is movement.

We move we live.  

How we move can affect our whole being! 

Movement does not have to be complicated. 

Move and explore as many ways to move your body as possible. 

Move in ways that you don't normally move. 

The more ways we move the body the more vitality we bring to our whole being. 

Move with intention and awareness - this is what a movement practice at YMS is all about. 

With movement it is a use it or lose it situation, that doesn't mean that you can't regain mobility because you can, but it is much easier to maintain it than regain it. 

Move your joints to establish ease of range of movement - ROM. 

Moving joints helps to balance the muscles associated with the joint. 

Balance of the muscles = flexibility and strength. 

Moving joints in all planes and direction supports the balance of the muscles and the health of the joint. 

Understanding the synchronicities of joints and areas of the body can help us understand why we have aches, pains, stresses and strains within the body. 

Sometimes a joint can over work because of lack of ROM in another joint. 

So isolate, improve movement in the joints and those aches, pains, stresses and strains can diminish. 

Get all the joints moving more freely and we can then flow freely by linking ROM of multiple joints. 

This isn't simply about improving your yoga practice but about improving your ability to move as a whole. 

With all this talk about joints and range of joint movement what about flexibility I here you say. Well better ROM in the joints will lead to improved flexibility. So its a double whammy. 

Working on controlled ROM within the joints will also lead to increased stability and strength of the joint and the body as a whole. 

Timetabled classes at YMS are planned with this in mind to help you move better and feel better. 

Yoga at YMS is about sustainable movement, mindful stillness and self care.
