Power Up Your Yoga Drills: Shoulder Mobility for Kapotāsana with Kino MacGregor

If you are working toward Kapotāsana or want to increase shoulder mobility and upper back strength, this drill-based class is for you. Kino leads a focused sequence designed to build strength, flexibility, and control in the shoulders and thoracic spine, preparing your body for deep backbends.

You will move through a progression of active strap drills, deep openers like Puppy Pose on blocks, and strength-building movements such as Dolphin Pose and supported elbow variations. These drills are not easy, but with consistent practice, they can help create the range of motion and stability needed for advanced poses like Kapotāsana.

This class is a great addition to your weekly training routine and will help you build awareness in your shoulder girdle, improve mobility, and deepen your understanding of alignment in backbending.
