Name
Yamuna Body Rolling
What it is
Structural exercises using different rolling balls.
Why we love it
Invented by Yamuna Zake, this simple method re-aligns the body with hands-on therapy. Transforming therapeutic pressure into a ball, the system allows the traction between the body and the ball to release tension. Accessible to all bodies, young and old despite injuries and limitations, the self-healing exercise tool pressurizes the spot where muscles connect.
In a class, expect to use various balls to roll from your collarbone to your shoulder joint, from the buttocks to the calf, there's even a ball designed specific to facial muscle realignment.
Yamuna Body Rolling improves posture and range of motion while increasing flexibility and building strong muscles. An ideal complement to yoga and based on some of the same principles, YBR reduces stress and frees you of stiffness and physical restriction for a balanced body.
What to bring
Classes will provide YBR balls or you can invest in your own for at-home workouts.
