We do a lot of squatting in our household. Ben loves squatting; I love squatting. We love it in different ways (he likes weighted squats, I like body-weight squats), but overall, we're basically a squatting couple. Sexy, I know. [But hey, wait, it can be fun! Remember Malasana & Merlot?] So anyways, because of this love for/obsession with squatting, it felt only natural to use the last episode of my recent yoga video miniseries,"Four Poses," to address squatting--or more specifically, to discuss four yoga poses that can help you to improve your squat. My goal? To improve the U.S. of A one squat at a time. I think that if we could all squat with ease, our nation would be a much happier, healthier place ;) As always, you can watch this week's Mat Matters video here on the blog, or by subscribing to my YouTube channel. Hope to see you squatting soon!

I love this! I <3 squats! Funny thing is, I used to hate them because they were hard on my knees, and my ankles are still unstable after the fusions (also just can't bend certain ways anymore), but I have to say that barre classes really made me appreciate squats. Now I look forward to doing them in your class and other yoga classes to stretch out other work that I've done :-) Comments are closed.
