SportsYoga.ie – Protect The Knees in Sport
Have you ever been told to lock your knees in a yoga class? As a Yoga Therapist, my advice to you is DO NOT LOCK your knees ever! This workshop is based on enforcing correct alignment of the knee and with the use of props, I will ensure the balance of strength and release with no sudden movements, planting, pivoting, and no deep squats. This workshop is a must for serious athletes who may have to pivot or turn suddenly in their game.
This workshop will focus on important factors related to correct knee alignment.
-
Correct alignment from the feet with weight evenly distributed across the entire foot
-
Engaging the center-line of the body reducing pressure on the joints
-
Warm up with hip openers- Lack of rotation in the hip can cause pain in the knee
-
Check for Hyper-extension of the knee
-
Use of props to build strength in the muscles supporting the knee cap
-
Sharpen your awareness of body signals to prevent injury
