*** 1min Chair Yoga Series #17 *** This is a great

*** 1min Chair Yoga Series #17 *** This is a great pose for stress and anxiety reduction. Once you get used to going into this inverted pose, this becomes a wonderful restorative pose. Shoulderstand is thought to be a mother of all yoga asana (postures). Think about the quality of mothers...Strong but nurturing. Durable but soft and calming. ~ Today’s Pose - Modified Shoulderstand ~

Benefits: Calms the nervous system and helps reduce the stress, anxiety and busy mind. Stretches the shoulders and arms and opens up the chest. Exercises the upper back muscles. Stretches the back of the neck. Stimulated the thyroid gland. Strengthens the muscles of the back body such as spinal muscle, glutes, and hamstrings.

Caution - This pose can put some weight on your flexed neck, so if you have an injury or sensitivity, you will want to use a blanket or two under your shoulders and arms and drape your neck and head to the floor to do this pose. Or just avoid this all together. Personally, when I do a shoulderstand without a chair, I always have a couple of folded blankets under my shoulders/arms to keep the natural curve in my neck.

Lie on your back close to the chair and lift your feet up on the chair seat. Reach the front chair legs with your hands. Slowly lift your hips up high and move your shoulder blades closer towards each other one side at a time. When you do so, roll yourself on the top of the shoulders instead of being on your upper back on the floor. As you push your arms down to the floor strongly, lift your side chests and sternum up. Keep lifting the outer hips up as you keep your feet and knees hips width apart, no wider. You can really feel the back of your body contracting and working to keep your body up. Relax your face and soften your throat. If you have a lot of pressure in your throat, lift your chin slightly to release the pressure. If you feel any neck pain once you go up, come down slowly. You might try the same pose on the floor without a chair. The pose then will be called “Bridge”. **Join my Zoom yoga on Tue/Thu 11am MST! Until 6/11, Zoom Yoga Special (Buy 1 get 2) for first timers going on. Link in Bio.

*** Free 26min Post Bike Yoga Video *** These phot

*** Free 26min Post Bike Yoga Video *** These photos are from Oct 2015. I used to ride my road bike a lot after my ACL surgery. I decided that I needed a goal and a challenge after the surgery to get stronger so I asked my good friends in Bend to help me reach that goal. We came up with the objective of riding from Bend to Portland in one day. I suggested we do a 2-day trip, but they, hard core adventure racers, insisted we do it in one day, so I agreed hesitantly. I had 5 months to train.

On that day (10/8/2015), we left the house in Bend at 5:30am, up and down several mountain passes, several flat tires, fun and misery, and we finally arrived in Portland after 13 hours, total of 182 miles. Up to that day, my longest ride was 50 miles in the Colorado mountains. My friends, Chelsey, Jason (@jasonandchelsey) and Dan, pushed me and encouraged me from the beginning til the end so I could reach my goal! I was nearly broken when I arrived in Portland but I was surprised to know that an objective that seemed impossible could be achieved with a hard work, a strong will to keep going and friends' support.

I took a break from riding a road bike and a mountain bike for several years and focused more on running since running makes my body feel better. Recently, I started to ride my road bike. I'm so out of shape of biking now! So, today, to celebrate my friendship with my friends from Bend and to respect all the bikers, I made a "Post Bike Yoga" sequence. It's 26min sequence to relax the low back/pelvis, stretch the hips/legs, mobilize the thoracic spine/neck and open up the front body. Although the sequence is made for bikers, ANYONE can benefit from this practice. Try it out. Video link in bio.

Since March, I have done all my training and pract

Since March, I have done all my training and practice of any kind at home or outside near my house; working out, practicing yoga, running, biking, hiking, etc. I also became accustomed to doing it all alone...Sometimes I felt isolated and sad about not being able to hang out with my friends but I also found myself quite motivated to keep my practice going on my own, because that was the main thing that kept my daily routine and made me look forward to waking up every morning. Since I no longer had my regular jobs since March, I often felt scared, anxious, worried and angry. It has been an emotional roller coaster the entire time. I never thought losing my jobs involuntarily would make me feel so miserable and insecure. Previously, I have quit different jobs at my own decision so that I could move on and open a new chapter of my life. This time, it was different.

However...after 2.5 months of this imposed break from my regular work and life, I have learned some important lessons. When I go back to do the things I used to do again, I will now choose to do that in a way that makes me feel healthier, reduces stress and is sustainable for me. I will not burn myself out and I will honor my needs instead of pushing myself through to make others happy. It sounds selfish but after a long time of reflection, hitting the reset button on my life was the best idea.

How is it gonna look like then? Right now, the only thing that I'm sure about is to keep my "home practice" going even after things are somewhat back to normal. I am loving my home yoga practice for many reasons...but one is that I do not have to do a perfect practice all the time! Sometimes I want to do a lazy practice, lying on my back and rolling around or just stare outside the window to relax my eyes (which works!). Listening to my need at that moment and doing that without regret.

I am offering a Zoom Yoga Special until 6/11 for those who have not tried my Zoom yoga yet. You can buy 1 class and get 2! If you have a doubt about the home yoga practice, if you don't know if you like my teaching style, this is a great opportunity for you to try it out! More info on my link in bio.

I'm happy to announce that I'll be continuing onli

I'm happy to announce that I'll be continuing online yoga teaching on Zoom this summer (June-Aug). After 2.5 months of teaching online (I mean learning and experimenting a lot of times), despite my skepticism at first, I find myself really enjoying teaching online and I can see myself doing it for a while.

I'm glad to be able to still provide my yoga offering to those who have been my long time students. Online yoga is not the same as in-person yoga. Precision of observing and quality touches are missing/lacking from the screen teaching, but being able to stay connected during this time has been a big motivation and encouragement for me and students.

I'm also glad to be able to reach out to people who have never been able to practice with me before or they moved away from Boulder. The fact that my sister in Japan who just had a first baby in January has been using my free yoga video "Yoga for Caretakers" to practice after the baby goes to sleep is wonderful.

Thanks for supporting me through this difficult time! I'm looking forward to more yoga practice with you. ***June Monthly Membership is now available for purchase***
Membership includes:
- Unlimited live yoga classes
- Recordings of all live classes
- Free special classes
- 20% off of online private sessions

More info on my link in bio.

Also, I'm reopening my Thai massage business from June sometime. The exact date is not set yet. If you have been my regular clients, I'll be reaching out to you by email soon for booking. If you like to be notified with further info, please sign up on my newsletter on my website at YogaYuki.com

***New Free Yoga Video - Yoga for Gardeners *** I'

***New Free Yoga Video - Yoga for Gardeners *** I'm sure a lot of you have been gardening and landscaping as the spring arrived and at the same time, have been experiencing the soreness and pain from the physical labor. The position that you are in while gardening is often bending forward, squatting and hunched forward and carrying heavy stuff. This yoga sequence will help relieve the low back tiredness and pain, stretch the back of the knees and ease the stress on your knees, mobilize the thoracic spine and open up the chest. You will feel taller and more open in your front body after the practice!
Also, this sequence is great not only for gardeners, but ANYONE who suffers from tight low back, tight hamstrings/glutes, tight shoulders/chest due to hunched position such as desk workers, students, drivers, etc.
Enjoy the day outside and take a break to try out this sequence!

My new acquired skill during this pandemic is crea

My new acquired skill during this pandemic is creating yoga videos of my own. Learning curve has been quite steep but I've been enjoying it so far. I'm nowhere near the professional level of videography but I'm proud of what I have done so far in last 2 months!
Did you know you can check out all 27 videos on my website (YogaYuki.com) under Online Training - Yoga Videos for free? You can keep going back to the same videos and practice them over and over. They are short from 1min to medium length 20min practices.
I plan to keep creating more videos to share with you!
At the same time, if you like to practice with me more in 60min classes, you can take Tue/Thu Zoom classes. We do a lot of fun, functional and energizing Hatha practices for all-levels of practitioners. If you are not able to take the classes live, I can send you the recording of the class as well. Link in bio.

Next week, I'm going to decide what my June is going to look like. So much to think and plan this week and next. Stay tuned!

*** 1min Chair Yoga Series #15 *** <<<Take a Break>>>
This is a great calming and restorative pose. If you have a headache, this chair modification of this standing forward fold will work really well because you can rest your forehead on your arms and that will help relieve the tension in your head. If you feel exhausted to even stand up to do this, you can sit on a chair in front of your desk/table, and rest your forehead on your arms on a desk/table. ~ Today’s Pose - Standing Forward Fold ~

Benefits: Stretches the back of the legs, hips and low back, Calms the nervous system and facilitates the destress and relaxation.

Feet hips width apart and hinge forward from the hip joints. If you feel tight in the back of your legs, keep your knees bent to start with. Place your hands on the chair seat. Lift your kneecaps gently and engage your quadriceps to help stretch the back of the legs more. You can lower to your forearms or to your head if you can keep hinging forward from the hips to come lower. Relax your shoulders and arms. Soften your abdomen with your exhalation. **Join me for Tue/Thu yoga at 11am MST on Zoom! Link in Bio.
