    After a warm up focused on conditioning, comes a flexibility warm up. This order of operations is essential to the health and longevity of your practice. Front splits and backbends are the major components of this routine. In this session I'll break down the active flexibility techniques that I teach in my weekly group classes, and demonstrate them for you.
