Immersion in the aquatic environment provides an opportunity to deload joints and explore mobilizations that might not be as readily accessible on land.

Today I spent time investigating my shoulder movements in the water, and broke from symmetrical actions.

Gomukhasana followed by garudasana.

I feel like I found a cheat code for recovery:

Viniyoga movements in the water.

I like how water forces you to gain control of yourself and your movements. You're working harder (concentration-wise) for stability. And by practicing Viniyoga movements in the water, you also learn more readily how to create evenly distributed movement through your spine.

A personal practice does not have to be lengthy. Just consistent. Today my pool practice was around 10 minutes.

Tuesdays and Thursdays I have the joy and privilege to teach aquatic Viniyoga movement principles to my community. Afterwards, it only makes sense to intentionally take the time to address my personal needs.

As of late, I've been practicing garudasana often as compensation for working on high volume wall balls. I've noticed that this movement helps me to address imbalances in my spiral lines and arm lines. Check out Tom Myers's Anatomy Trains conceptualizations of fascial chains - the Spiral Line and Arm Lines he describes help you to see connectivity of your body in a broader way.

The more I work with my spiral lines and arm lines in this way, I notice a decrease of stress and congestion in my right wrist when it extends. My "wrist issue" isn't just a "wrist issue". It's a response in that area in my body due to imbalances elsewhere.

Be careful about assuming one body part is at fault. Don't lose sight of the forest for the trees.

And remember, your breath is your most foundational movement. ❤️

The breath matched with intentional partnerships serves as the heart of these movements.

Inhale + expand the chest
Exhale + contract the abdomen

The movement principle here is the feel the breath change first, then move with it.

Spinal flexion, extension and twisting can be layered over this foundation, and creates really wonderful integrated movement patterns.

This practice is my go-to for active recovery. 15 minutes. Nothing fancy. Just deliberate and Intentional.

Balancing vigorous movement with active recovery movements!

Mondays are typically my hard work movement days - I'll go climbing in the morning and then do a CrossFit style workout in the late afternoon.

On Tuesdays I have the blessing of teaching aquatic Viniyoga so naturally after class I will make it a point to do my own practice.

This past Monday I climbed the Kilterboard, did lots of running, pullups, pushups and deadlifts.

So on Tuesday I practiced movements to help me re-orient my spine and release my lats, my traps, delts, glutes and hammies.

In my mid 40s I find it's crucial to compensate and recover adequately for intense activity on a regular basis. I prioritize sleep and nutritious food. But also nutritious spinal movement with breath as the center!

When you're consistent with spinal movement practice partnered with your breath, you start to discover that you don't need a very long session to enjoy "antidote" benefits.

There are activities that I engage in for strength and power development. I find that this movement methodology helps me to compensate for the strenuousness of that work.

You can observe the particular movements I selected today as compensation for back squats and high volume wall ball shots.

This practice took no more than 10 minutes.

Sweet and simple. With breath at the heart and center of the movements!

Hey everyone,
I'll be presenting at IAFTC 2026 in May - that's just around the corner!

Leading up to that, I'll try to capture my pool practices and upload highlights of them.

I have a lot of great information I want to keep sharing with everyone about breath movement and how you can be deliberate with linking that to spinal movement.

Feel free to ask me questions about anything you see in these video uploads!

Love, Sandi ❤️
