This yoga class is dedicated to my kids and their swim teams in Colorado. I am not a swimmer myself, but like me, you can benefit from this class even if you are not a swimmer. This class begins with simple postures that focus on strengthening upper, middle, low back and hamstrings and then moves on to stretching the front of the body chest and quads. After extended child’s pose, this class moves through a typical warm up sequence (front and back body, inner and outer leg), and then a deep stretch for your chest and shoulders heart melting pose. Half way through class you can enjoy a deep hip stretch in Malasana pose deep squat) before you move into deep stretches for the shoulders and chest, quads and inner thighs. This yoga class covers a lot but finishes with twists and savasana. Enjoy! Let me know what you think in the comments below! Have a favorite swimmer?

Here are 5 yoga postures that should be practiced regularly before swimming to help increase your flexibility, tone your body and give you extra strength to swim more effortlessly.. Yoga is an excellent training regimen for swimmers. This dry land training offers lots of benefits for swimmers, which can extremely help in boosting your performance.. Yoga helps swimmers conserve their energy, by enhancing your breathing pattern, which obviously plays an important role in the life of a swimmer.. It also helps developing your balance, which makes you glide in the water in a smooth and effortless manner. But that’s not all, yoga is also good in making all parts of your body flexible. Thus, stretching for swimmers is vital in extending your arms, shoulder blades, legs and feet easier than before..

Spinal Balance pose boosts your balance and coordination; stretches the lower back, upper back, and shoulders.. Start by kneeling on your hands and knees and extend your straight right arm forward.. When you’re balanced, extend your left leg (the opposing limb) backward to hip level and hold for 10 seconds, breathing deeply. Return both limbs to the floor gently, then switch sides and repeat. Go back and forth rhythmically 3 to 8 times.. 2.. Cow Face Pose stretches your ankles, hips and thighs, shoulders, armpits, triceps, and chest. It also aids in any chronic knee pain, strengthens your spine and abdominals and clears your hip joints.. 3.. Cat and Cow Pose increases the flexibility of your spine and helps in removing any stiffness of your shoulders and neck. It also helps in achieving the right posture for your body.. It’s important to curve your spine in the right manner. Never let it slant or bent in the wrong direction.. Stretch your entire back and shoulder properly and pay heed on tucking your tummy in.. 4..

The contraction-relax technique (see figure 6.2) begins in the same starting position with your partner providing an easy 4to 6-second stretch before giving the signal “back” for you to contract your hip flexors and push forward for 4 to 6 seconds as your partner continues to push your leg forward.

Loved it, as always! ♀️ Thankful for the consistency of your new video releases! I always look forward to your new flows and get so excited when I see the notification!
Hi Erin. Thank you for posting this yoga class specifically for swimmers. I have been practicing with you for a year now, and I have incorporated what I’ve learned to my own swim and stretch routines. Thank you for all that you do!
Thank you so so much, I don’t swim, but I had unbearable pain, no one managed to diagnose. I finally diagnosed my self by looking on the net. The next step was finding the cure. I have been suffering from horrible pain for the last 8 months. I found you on youtube, as soon as I started doing the stretches, I found instant relief. ^ months of physical therapy and 4 sessions of chiro. so far but you did the trick.
Hey @Swimming Specific Yoga i love your yoga lessons they are amazing they always help me when I’m about to get into a race and i really dont know what i would do without you. Thanks soo much for these yoga lessons and i hope that you and your channel will be successful in the future.
After seeing this video I think what I lack most is flexibility. I mean I have a vo2max of 65, I run fast I’m getting faster and faster on bike but I have been doing triathlon for 4 years and I went from going at the same speed of people doing breathstroke when I do front crawl to still getting out with the second half of the swimmers in triathlon (overall). I’m not saying i have the best technique, but I’m almost as bad wether I swim twice or 5 times /week and I think I know the major points of the technique but even if I tried to apply them, it’s like there is something else getting in my way. I’m very not flexible of nature, just sitting on my feet hurt a lot so you can be sure I’ll give those a try! Thank you
Good morning Erin! Today is my rest day and I just did this routine at 5:15am. I was going to do your Yoga for Your Shoulders (Perfect for Swimmers) class but did this one instead because some of my fitness friends did this recently! Oh how I love the holds so much! Not only shoulders, but also chest, upper and lower back, glutes, thighs, quads and hams feel so good! I must do this class again! Thank you so much Erin! Have a wonderful and blessed day!:-)
Dude, Michael Phelps have double jointed shoulders. He is born with it. There is no way, a normal person can stretch till you have MP shoulder flexibility. Not even you.
excellent class erin! I am not a regular swimmer but do crossfit/fitness 3 times a week and I do your classes twice a week and each time they work like a miracle to open up and lengthen my stiff classes from all that weighttraining. and after this class, I feel like a I have a brand new back and spine. thank you so much!
Not a competitive swimmer, but this class was perfect for my tight shoulders . I also really love your yoga towel, would you mind sharing where you bought it?
Hi Erin, love your classes! Can I request you to post a class entailing yoga that is of faster pace and flowy, as in that the next posture flows into the one prior? Thank you
don’t do the flexibility one because this will cause you to cross over if you do what he was saying which can cause major swimming shoulder injury. put your arms in a natural stretched out position, don’t have your arm touching your head
I do a lot of jump rope. I know this isn’t a sport in itself but There’s a huge growing community of jump ropers. It generally leaves me with tight calves and hamstrings, knees and sore shoulders. Would love it if you could do a cool down/ stretch routine for that.
I practice regularly in a local studio, but when I can’t make it in for my daily practice Erin is my go to. I was a little intimidated by the title. I am a fun loving lap swimmer. This was perfect. I was feeling so tight in my lower back from my workout and this did the trick. Thanks Erin.
I really enjoyed it Erin… Thank you so much for your outstanding and challenging yoga workouts.. I was wondering if you could do a yoga workout dedicated to summer bodies.. Thanks again..Namaste
Erin you are my fav yoga person… but this should have been called sleepy time yoga.. could have done this in pj’s and gone straight to bed… please more “fun Erin”… fit.. playground.. peak pose.. vigorous vinyasa… anything to get the sweat going…:D T.Y.
Thanks so much for your videos. You truly hot me excited about yoga. I am currently on a weight lost journey and your videos has inspired me to inspire others by sharing my journey with then..
Thanks I been swimming for years, I used always stretch before I swim, Recently I was thinking and realizing, istopped I got a unimask so I can breath through my nose,
The past hurt my back months ago, but, now my back hurts to swim and daily,any thoughts to help myself,other then you fabulous stretches.
You’re stretches are amazing, dont realise what’s tight until stretch it, could you do one for rugby players or long term gym goes while never stretched properly? This would be a great help
I’ve been doing yoga for 3 years now and since i met Five parks my yoga routine has totally changed. She is the one who paved the way for yoga being my life style. I feel like she is an older sister who guides and inspires me with her wishes at the end of the videos. I totally respect what she is doing because among all those yoga teachers i think she is the most professional and sincere one. I love doing yoga everyday with her and feel improved every time.
Loving these follow along routines. Been trying to improve my flexibility during lockdown. I am a footballer and get cramp in my hip flexors often especially when working out. Could u plz do a flexibility routine targeted at footballers. Cheers.
Hi Tom, Thanks for sharing these awesome yoga routines with us loving them ! I was wondering if you would consider doing one for cyclists ♀️ and triathletes .
No offense but this looks like you have no idea about the demands of competitive swimming. This is a default mobility routine for an average person. If you are not a swimmer you should work with one to understand the topic before making such video. No plantar flexion stretches for improving the kick. No breaststroker’s stretches. No chest press mobility for butterfliers. Internal shoulder rotation (which is often decreased in pro swimmers)? Also no. It doesn’t even have a good lat/teres stretch the muscles that get extremely tight and painful with big volumes of swim training without proper stretching… Sorry mate, but I gotta downvote this.
Thank you very much. I haven’t sleeping well due to back pain, but after stretching with this video I think that I’ll get better sleep. More swimming ♂️ now! Hehehe Also, would you recommend any stretching before going to bed?
Wow! To think I nearly skipped this one because I’m not a swimmer!! Perfect for office workers with tight hips from sitting and tight shoulders from hunched over a desk (ie me!!!). I think this might be a lovely evening class as well…perfect wind down before bed. Thank you, Erin.
Loved it, as always! ♀️ Thankful for the consistency of your new video releases! I always look forward to your new flows and get so excited when I see the notification!
In addition to the four stretches, I’d recommend also stretching hip flexors and work on core strengthl, which helped me improve my swimming a lot…

I’m glad to come across your video. Can a nine year old start doing this stretching? Is it too late to develop this kind of flexibility.?
This was awesome! But, for some reason the PDF link takes me to the middle split routine, and I can’t find the PDF anywhere on your website!

How about Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. We always suffer from tight shoulers chest, but also would greatly benefit from better middle splits flexibility.
