Yoga Month

At a club I work at we have declared July as YOGA MONTH!
The challenge is that you practice yoga every day of the month!
This doesn't mean a full out Bihkram (sp?) 90min session.
This can mean a great stretch or meditation (hello Corpse Pose in the living room), or abs workout!
Yesterday, I started out pretty lame doing only a stretch to count.
Today I joined a yoga class and it was AWESOME to do things a little different than I'm use to!

Here is a great sequence to get you started. It's stellar for abs, and basically the rest of your body!
Start in Downward Dog. Lift one leg up (like top picture), and slowly come into
plank position, driving your knee to the outer elbow (lower picture), return to the top picture and then
come back to plank driving the knee to the opposite arm's inner elbow. 
Repeat this combination move 8 times then push back to Child's Pose to rest.
Repeat on other leg.

ENJOY!!!!
