In this video, Deanna Hansen explores the soleus muscle, a deeper calf muscle that is often referred to as the “second heart.”

She breaks down where the soleus is located, why calf tension and alignment patterns may influence how the body moves, and how the feet, calves, breath, and posture are all connected through the fascial system.

Using a rolled up towel or a Block Buddy, Deanna shares a simple way to explore tension in the calf area while focusing on diaphragmatic breathing and body awareness.

In this video, you’ll learn:

✨ Where the soleus muscle is located
✨ Why the calves are an important part of the body’s foundation
✨ How alignment patterns may show up through the feet and lower legs
✨ A simple towel technique to explore calf tension
✨ Why breath awareness is an important part of the Block Therapy practice

As always, move slowly, listen to your body, and work within a range that feels appropriate for you.
