Keeping our shoulders happy in Plank and Chaturanga

In the Vinyasa Foundations series this past Monday we focused on lowering into Chaturanga Dandasana from both plank on the knees and high plank using a block under the chest as a guide to how much to lower down. It is important to be aware of how your shoulders are positioned during the transition in to Chaturanga as letting the shoulders roll forward can lead to injury. This article outlines some strengthening and activating exercises to ensure proper function and alignment for your shoulders. Enjoy!
