Yoga isn’t just about physical exercise—it is also about calming the mind and re-aligning it to the body. Yoga is an incredible way to quiet your mind—which is very helpful when you dive. Here are some essential yoga postures (asanas) you can rehearse with your diving pals for a better dive:
Mountain Pose (Tadasana)
Foundation for most poses and an astounding instrument to enhance posture.
Forward Fold (Uttanasana)
The head, on this stance, is underneath your heart enabling blood to stream to your head giving your cells a renewing increase in oxygen.
Upward Dog (Urdhva Mukha Svanasana)
An extraordinary stretch for the chest, shoulders and stomach area. It likewise fortifies the spine, arms, and wrists.
Half Standing Forward Fold (Ardha Uttanasana)
Stretches the spine and legs.
Four-Limbed Staff Pose (Chaturanga)
Tones arm and lower arm muscles and create adaptability and quality in the wrists. Likewise, best stance to tone muscular strength.
