Breath of Funny (Naked Yoga School Video)

(LEVEL: Beginners) Luckily nobody slipped me any ritalin between shoots. Having had the opportunity to teach children yoga in an after school programme it was shocking to see how many adults simply saw the goal of the class as to DISCIPLINE the children. Looking at the sad sack adults on the street and wondering what had become of the bright spirits they were decades ago, I realized we get on the wrong track at a pretty young age. This series is intended to undo all the damage caused to you starting from elementary school right through your present desk job. Seriously power point????

We begin with some fun vinyasa flow sun salutations, play a bit with eagle pose for all levels and then cap it off with a focus on the lower back with a little bit of yin yoga by exploring seal and snail pose.

Organs of Action: The Anus (Naked Yoga School Video)

Starting with self-massage and a physical exploration of the tail bone (coccyx) and sit bones (ischial tuberosities), the practice continues with an application of the pelvic floor in select asana, and concludes with a guided relaxation and an invitation to explore the subtle nature behind this organ of action.

Asana presented in this teacher-and-student video include: Adho Mukha Svanasana (Downward Facing Dog Pose), Ardha Uttanasana (Half Standing Forward Bend), and Uttanasana (Standing Forward Bend).

Naked Office Yoga 4: For Your Lower Torso (Naked Yoga School Video)

(Level: Basic) Office Yoga for your lower torso puts you in touch with your hips, buttocks, belly and lower back. These are the foundations of any seated posture so you don’t want to ignore this vital region of the body, yet many of us do take this area of the body for granted. The results may sound familiar: low back pain, sore hips, and numbness in the buttocks. But perhaps even more detrimental are the digestive and eliminative disorders that can arise when we don’t liberate the lower torso: ulcers, incontinence, diarrhea, constipation, hemorrhoids. If that’s not enough to get your hips swinging and your belly churning (in a good way), then you might be compelled by yet another benefit of this practice: improved sexual vitality.

Naked Office Yoga 3: For Your Upper Limbs (Naked Yoga School Video)

(Level: Basic) Office Yoga for your upper limbs focuses on the hands, wrists, forearms, elbows and arms. Sitting in an office usually results in using our upper limbs in unbalanced ways, holding part of the limb very still and asking another part of the limb to work tirelessly — thing about writing, typing, mousing. Repetitive stresses, such as carpal tunnel syndrome, are one expression of this imbalanced use of the upper limbs. A regular practice of the sequence provided here will help re-balance the upper limbs and can reduce your risk of repetitive stress injuries.

Naked Office Yoga 2: For Your Lower Limbs

(Level: Basic) Office Yoga for your lower limbs targets the feet, ankles, shins, knees and thighs. Sitting for long periods of time can be very hard on the circulatory system. Contraction and relaxation of the leg muscles helps to push your blood back up to the heart. Without this assistance, your heart has to work that much harder to keep the blood moving. So in addition to lengthening and strengthening your lower limbs, which tend to get neglected when we sit, this sequence is also good for your heart.
