~The Lunge Pose~

“The Lunge Pose is a core aspect of the Sun Salutation in the YogaSkills Method (YSM). This posture opens the hips, lengthens the quadriceps muscles, opens the lungs and even stimulates the thyroid gland in the throat.” ~ Yirser Ra Hotep

Beautiful Bishops Peak. Reading and #meditation where the air is clear. The chatter of birds is all I hear.😊🙏 No Super Bowl, ignorant yelling people, or sloshy beers. Instead I decide to #challenge myself and #concur my fears. Just the #Yogi in me!😜💪✌ #8anglepose #Balancearmy #Yogaeverdamnday #Yoga2013 #yogaday #Yoga #balance #asana #Workout #fitfarm #Fitstagram #excercise #teamsofit #inspiration #motivation #dedication @fitqueenirene @laurasykora @masumi_g - @andrew7sealy- #webstagram

High Lunge.

I love the idea of the blog. For some reason black people as a whole think that yoga “isn’t made for them”.
