MOAR’s Daily Dozen: The Full Sequence

Over the last 12 days, I’ve broken down my Daily Dozen Yoga Poses for Post-Athletic Recovery.  If you’ve been following along with the daily poses, it’s now time to string them together. The whole sequence should take you between 20-25 minutes, holding each pose for 10 deep breaths.  If you can work these stretches into your routine three to five days a week, you’ll be well on your way to a more flexible, strong and injury-free body.

To recap…
