Yoga before a flight combines a warm-up for your legs and back with attention to your breathing. Practice at home and take some time for yourself before traveling and spending hours in a seat.
This 60-minute class features “Standing One-Legged Frog Pose with Backbend”, “Dynamic Cat with Leg Extension” and “Leg Raising and Lowering Kriya in Shoulder Stand”. Towards the end of the class, you'll practice the breathing technique “Pranayama in Diamond Pose”. You'll finish with a rest lying down.
Once you've finished packing, you can spend an hour on the mat before your trip.
Choose a level of effort that leaves you with energy for your journey. If you have health-related limitations, follow your doctor's recommendations.
