Upper Body Stretches - Intermediate Flexibility Flow (Back, Chest & Shoulders)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 21 авг 2024
- Hi friends! This class is a compilation of some of my favorite upper body stretches and drills to help increase not only flexibility, but strength and mobility as well. We will be focusing on the upper back, chest and shoulders for this sequence.
You will need 1 yoga strap (substitute with a shirt, towel, belt or scarf) and 2 yoga blocks. I really like the cork blocks the best as I find they're sturdy and offer the most support.
I'll be offering modifications throughout this class for you to play around with. Please remember to listen to your body and never force yourself into a stretch or pose that you aren't ready for. This flow is designed for you to come back to and practice on a regular basis.
If you enjoyed this type of class, be sure to let me know! If there's something specific you'd like to see on the channel, comment below. I love hearing your recommendations!
See you on the mat,
Jess ♥️

Since this quarantine has started, my mum and I have been taking your classes everyday. I've been really loving the way you teach yoga: it's not just about the poses and workout, but also the mental state. I feel your classes have really helped me physically and mentally and I can't thank you enough! I would love if you could do more dynamic vinyasa flows, I've been really into them! Thank you for what you do! Sending love from Portugal.
You do realize that these are just yoga stretches right lol😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣.You need actual exercise.
Can't believe that was 30 minutes. It went by so fast and I feel so good now ❤️ thank you
This is exactly what I’ve needed for my back pain! I love the block stretches! I hope to be able to get into a back bend soon :)
This is perfect!! I injured my harm strings doing straddle splits and Im so happy to finally continue doing some yoga while leaving my poor legs alone for the while!! Thank you so much!!!
What an amazing feeling my shoulders are nice and loose! Namaste 🙏🏾
I've been following your content for a while now. This is such a great flow. Thank you, Jessica. I love your soothing voice-over. ❤️
Thank you Jessica! I love your online sessions. Since recently discovering you, we have been hanging out almost daily. I appreciate that you take the time to put these videos together for us.
After doing this sequence just one time the horrendous pain in my neck subsided tremendously. I had been performing stretches for my neck and back, but not until I incorporated these shoulder stretches did I feel any relief. Thank you, thank you! I have since been doing several of the stretches morning and night and am improving daily. It was a sign when this showed up in my recommended videos list. Love everything you do for us!!
I finally found the perfect yoga for my back, thank you so much!! I have scoliosis and this will give me so much relief. I appreciate your work Jessica!
it's amazing how using props elevates (no pun intended) the quality of the practice! Amazing and Thank you!
Easily one of my favourites. What an amazing session. Yoga is so much joy with Jess. Love and blessings to all. Thank you Jess. Keeps doing the magic you do🌻🌷🌺❤️🌈🙏💕🌹
I love this one. It's great for degenerative disc disease of the spine. Tonight this video gave me enormous relief and started me towards recovering a disc episode in my upper back. Thank you for the holistic pain relief!
I LOVED this!!! definitely want to incorporate this into my practice more. thank you!
This is going to be a game-changer for my shoulder pain. Thank you.
this is my first time doing yoga with you, you're a fantastic instructor! it would be awesome if you did a similar video with upper body/arms specific stretches at the end since we worked them to support the body while doing the previous stretches, thank you!
Thank you thank you. Ive never felt so light in my upper body and stretched further than I knew I could. Now I will have to get some blocks. You are extraordinary. Thanks again!
The deep relief I feel right now! I’m so thankful to have found your channel! My mood is uplifted even!
Gratitude!
Best Yoga classes I have ever tried, thank you
AMAZING!!!! Feeling like a NEW WOMAN🥰🥰🙏🏽thank you
jessica i cannot thank you enough for how amazing you always make me feel. this was a much needed practice for me
My shoulders are thankful!!!
Thank you so much for this session. I'm glad I chose this one today for my menstruation-induced back pain.
Looooved this class! Very unique and I really enjoyed using the blocks to open up deeper. Saving this to my favourites so I can repeat this class when I need it. Thank you! :)
Thank you so much, love your yoga pose it's very helpful for me since I was having Neck and shoulder pain.
Finally I found something great for my stiff upper back. Thanks so much ☺️
Thank you so much Jessica! This session is excellent! The best upper body stretches I have ever found. As well as all your classes. I really appreciate your kindness and generosity 🤗💗
Thanks to you really. I found you recently and every restorative, yin yoga or upper body class that I have done have been exactly what I needed. I still have to try your other classes but I'm sure I'll like them aswell. Thanks you so much.
Love love love your classes! Thank you.
So good, we don’t use to stretch the upper body enough , thank you for the video
Hi, Jessica, just wanted to let you know that, thanks to your class, I did my very first puppy pose with straight legs today - yeeeey! Thank you so much and sending love from central Europe
Thank you Jessica! , it was great.
Beautiful movements and clear instructions
19/1/23 done in the AM 😌🙏🏾🆒. Unfortunately I didn't have yoga blocks 😔 but hope to purchase month 🔚😸🙏🏾. The entire practice was incredible 👌🏾👌🏾👌🏾 especially extended puppy pose with lifting knees off the floor 💪🏾, I thought my back would crack 😸😸😸. Gracias Jessica 😚😻😇
Opening up the chakras/body in a great order! Can't wait for what's next. Thanks.
25:30 Opening heart ❤. Jessica well done. I applaud you 👏.
Omg that was amazing
I am so glad that I found you. I have been having pain in my deltoid and it is messing with my push-ups and raising my arm overhead. After your video my pain has lightened up. I am going to continue to do this video along with my strengthening exercises and see if I can rehabilitate this left shoulder. Thank you so much Jessica. The class was awesome.
One of the Best classes I've ever seen, thank u so much!
very good, thank you, my shoulders haven't felt this loose for years, I modified my use of the blocks, but hey, that's OK, I will return to this again once weekly
So nice! Thank you ❤
Great class Jessica! I have been sitting at my desk so much lately and this loosened me up so much so that my evening can be more relaxing. I did have to modify a few back bends and I did stay in pontoon pose for some extra time. That's one one of my favorites to loosen my low back and hip flexors. Thank you for such a focused class! Be well!
Omg this was so good!!! I was craving a juicy deep upper back stretch today and this absolutely nailed it. Thank you thank you thank you ❤ I'll be coming back to this one for sure!!
Excellent sequence!
Great flow
I follow you on Instagram and have always been in awe of your upper back strength/mobility. I just starting following you on here a few days ago and this was exactly what I needed today! Your voice is so soothing btw, definitely will be incorporating this into my backbend days ❤️🙏🏻

👏👏👏🕉🧘♀️❤️
Очень хорошие практики у вас.Супер.Очень жаль что не на русском.🤔🤔🤔 Оооочень понравились🧘👍👏
Jessica thank you so much. I have question for you. On 27th minutes this practice, we have block under spine, is it helpful and safe for beginner?
Hey apart from safe it impossible for a non flexible person to do so I highly doubt it would be safe
How do you manage to seat in that seated position for so long??? I begin to feel uncomfortable after 3 seconds hahahhaha
Hola , te amo .
My back never did this before?! I guess I'm a snake 🥴😄.
I got a question, can guys flex their back like that? or .... are my bones preventing me from flexing that much? o _o
5:45 how u do that?? I can't 😭 my face is going to hit the floor
4:52 OOO!! si asi es me encanta esa poce
so juicy!
HAVE YOU GOY YOGA FOR BONE STRENGTHENING +FOR OSTEOPINIA? THANKU
