Day #10

Surfer’s Lunge
A deep side lunge Skandasana (skahn-DAH-suh-nuh).

Named after the war god Skanda, signifying strength and leaping.
* Skandasana: Means “Skanda’s Pose,” referring to the Hindu god of war, often called the “leaping warrior” pose.

Benefits:
Core & Balance: Engages abdominals and obliques, strengthening the core and improving stability needed for dynamic surfing movements.
Hip & Hamstring Flexibility: Deeply stretches tight hip flexors, hamstrings, and inner thighs, crucial for mobility and preventing injury.
Leg Strength: Strengthens feet, ankles, legs, and glutes, essential for powerful paddling and pop-ups.
Body Awareness: Enhances coordination and focus, helping you feel more connected and intuitive in the water.
Reduces Stiffness: Alleviates tightness from prolonged sitting or sports, improving circulation and easing back pain.
Prepares for Advanced Poses: Opens the hips for deeper stretches like Goddess Pose or splits.
How it Helps Surfers
Stronger Pop-Ups: Legs and core get stronger for quick, explosive movements onto the board.
Better Paddle Power: Hip and shoulder mobility aids in fluid paddling.
Fluid Riding: Increased flexibility and balance allow for more intuitive, fluid movements on the wave.
Faster Recovery: Helps the body recover from the demands of surfing, reducing post-surf soreness.

Day #9

Cat tail pose

This pose is often found in a Yin Yoga class or the end of a flow class to relax with a full body stretch before savasana.
It targets the deep fascia between the quads, hamstrings, calves and hip flexors. It relaxes the lower back and offers a gentle stretch through the chest and shoulders.

It can be a bit tricky to get into the pose, but well worth the effort.

Start laying facedown. Reach your left arm forward and roll over onto your left side. Straighten your right leg in front of you, flexing the foot and resting it on the floor. Bend your left knee, drawing it back towards the edge of your mat, and as you roll more onto your back, reach down with your right hand to take hold of your lower leg, just above your ankle.
Rest back on a bolster or blanket and look up towards the ceiling.
To move into a deeper spinal twist and chest opener, do not use a bolster but roll all the way onto your back, relaxing the right shoulder down towards the floor and your gaze towards the ceiling or over to the right.

Take long deep breaths, staying in the pose up to 2 or more minutes.
Then repeat on the other side.
