Yoga Challenge – Day #18 

[t gellenbeck]

If I don’t want to share my mat, yoga must be done either during nap time, after bed time or at a studio.  Otherwise, my little guy [and often my Golden Retriever, Murphy] tends to cramp my style.  I can’t help but laugh at his desire to climb on me, jump, tumble and giggle on the mat!  So we made up a quick yoga sequence that we run through on days we want a little momma/baby time.

 

Here are some photos for you visual learners, in no particular order…

 

Have the little one help roll out your mat…

And get started on the fun!

Core work – legs bent, legs straight… similar to Superman [or Super Baby as we call it]

Baby bench press – bring baby down to chest, then push up towards ceiling, as many as you can

     

 

Forward fold and/or downward facing dog –

baby can participate or if its a little one, do some down dog kisses! 

   

Baby’s turn!  

Help them do downward dog, summersaults, backbends and anything else they enjoy doing!  

 

#independencearmy challenge

Today’s posture, like so many others, is another challenging one… Eka Pada Koundinyasana II.  If you’re a beginner, just practice any of the other poses that you’ve been wanting to work on.

 

@LauraSykora rocking it!
