Many of us in today’s world spend a lot of time sitting in front of computers; this tends to wreak havoc on our necks, shoulders, hamstrings, sciatic nerves and piriformis muscles, all of which can lead to widespread body pain. For instance, did you know that the majority of chronic headaches and migraines are caused by tension in the neck and shoulders?

Michael Riel leads you through a one hour yoga flow designed to release those hard-working neck and shoulder muscles as well as loosening the related muscles and joints through the whole body. This class is designed to decrease headache and shoulder pain as well as increase awareness of how the whole body interrelates. Using twists, strength building postures and backbends, this class will help you bring circulation to your body after a long day. Duration: 57 min

Benefits: tones the spine, releases the neck and shoulders, lubricates the vertebrae and shoulder joints, lengthens the hamstrings, strengthens the back muscles, releases piriformis muscle, can relieve headache/migraine pain

Contraindications: if you are recovering from any spine, neck or shoulder injury, consult your health practitioner before attempting this, or any yoga exercise. Teacher: Michael A. Riel

    I am doing Yoga for around 3 years. I lost my weight around 45 kg in these years.

    I''ve only been into yoga for about a year now, but ever since I''ve gotten into it I''ve loved it more and more. That being said, before I got into yoga I used to do a lot of calisthenic work, so keeping my back in good form was always a big concern for me.

    My back feels much looser and so do my legs. Thanks goes out to the teacher, Michael, and to YogaYak for providing such rejuvenating and healing classes free to the public.

    I woke up with a tension headache this morning and could not do my usual workout. After doing this practice, my headache was gone and I was feeling fabulous all over.

    It’s almost a year that I started yoga practices and I love it. I tried this session and I feel much better, big thanks to Michael. I also like his foundations class-Sivananda flow, way more advance for me but I like it, would be fantastic to have more of his classes!

    I really like this yoga video. I used to think yoga is for women. However, being flexible and relax makes me feel like living in peace. Love this.

    OK Michel, here we go.  Pulling myself back up from months of inactivity, not to mention the 3 British stones in weight gained, my journey starts here.  The only way is up!

    Be gentle with yourself!  And don’t forget, this easy class is a good fall back if Michaels class is a bit to advanced — http://yogayak.com/2005/06/18/easy-ground-work-hatha-yoga-flow-1/

    If such dance techniques are one thing, another is Pilates. This is also a physical fitness

    system developed in the early 20th century by Joseph Pilates from Germany. In short time Mat

    Pilates has seen such a popularity that as of now there are way over 11 million people

    practicing it on a regular basis. Based on principles of breathing, alignment, centering,

    concentration, control, precision, flow of efficiency or movement, and flexibility; this

    program is focused at core postural muscles that help us keep our body balanced and support

    our spine.

    If you want to deepen yourself in the study and practice in
    yoga, ayurveda and meditation than this is a golden offer to change the
    direction of the life with the help of yoga and meditation. Our sessions begin
    each morning with 90 minutes. We are offering the opportunity to practice the
    yoga in fullness and expand the internal energy. It’s a combination of mental
    awareness, philosophy and yoga science with physical behavior and movement. In
    yoga we are working on how to create a balance in life via breathing and
    concentration methods.
