Next Level Yoga presents Core Strength and Balance Challenge
Summer Porch Yoga Core and Balance Challenge Video
Ready for a challenge? This class combines the two things clients request most, core work and balance. I firmly believe that balance is not improved by standing on one leg, but rather, by challenging the body’s ability to adjust during movements in all planes of motion.
Handily enough, all balance work requires core strength. This class has kneeling core and balance work, a core isolation flow series, then a long-levered balance sequence.
We finish on our backs with a tough and tricky series I call, dead crow progression. Not gonna lie, this one’s a killer. It may take you a couple times through to get it, but when you master this class, it feels amazing.
You will need a block.; if you don’t have a yoga block a large book like Stephen King’s It or Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows will do, but put a string or rubber band around it so it doesn’t open on you at an inopportune time.
If you like this video, I would be ever so appreciative if would subscribe to my YouTube channel. I need 1,000 subscribers for the folks at YouTube to take me seriously, I am currently at 17, clearly I am playing the long game 🙂

I just subscribed, I want to get back into yoga. I hadn’t gotten farther than a few simple poses but now I feel like I need the time on the mat.
Hi Leslie, welcome back!!
I’m so glad you are here. I recommend starting with the Neck and Shoulder Elixir class, then moving to the Hips and Hamstrings class, those are two all level classes that will build your confidence back up and have you flowing like a yoga pro in no time. Thanks for taking the time to comment, I sincerely appreciate it.
