pose of the week: runner's lunge

Can you believe that we are already heading into week 2 of month 2? As you read in our newsletter, we have decided to make our focus this month (FebYOUary) to be all about sending yourself as much love as possible. What better way to do that than practicing a pose that looks as awesome as this?

Runner's lunge is a great addition to the variety of lunge poses that you'll find yourself in as your yoga practice evolves. It has similar benefits as crescent lunge, but also includes the major ADDED BONUS of working your core and taking your balance to the next level.

How did you do last week? Are your legs all lunged out? Make sure you're warming up and taking your time getting in and out of these postures. Our suggestion is to warm up using this month's bonus video Half Sun Salutation + low lunge and then dive into your pose of the week.

Happy lunging! 

What to do with the new pose:

  • Add it onto your January 52 flow sequence (aka the last four poses we worked on)
  • Add it into your already awesome morning yoga routine after you perform February's Bonus of the Month video!
  • Use the audio above to help you flow through it!
