Too open! Doing it in water can eliminate all the toxins in the body

As the name suggests, water yoga is an innovative form of exercise that cleverly combines the basic principles of water exercise with some familiar yoga postures. Currently, there are tens of thousands of people in the United States who are keen on water yoga, and many swimming pools in Japan have also opened water yoga fitness programs, but it is still in its infancy in China.

The water depth of 1-1.2 meters is more suitable for underwater yoga

Yoga emphasizes the mastery of posture, rhythm and exhalation, especially in the mastery of breathing techniques, which is quite similar to swimming. The biggest difference in posture between practicing yoga in water and practicing yoga on land is that in addition to mastering the body, practicing yoga in water also requires understanding how the body and water get along.

Water yoga can make full use of the resistance and buoyancy of water. Through the resistance of water, it can exercise people's strength, endurance and shape a perfect body; through the buoyancy of water, it can exercise people's flexibility and reduce sports injuries. It is suitable for many people.

TIPS: Water yoga: The water depth should not exceed the abdomen, 1-1.2 meters is more suitable, and there are more standing movements.

If you can persist in doing water yoga for a long time, it can not only adjust the human posture and the physiological curvature of the spine, but also make the whole body develop in a streamlined shape. This adaptive variability shapes the beautiful lines of the human body, especially the shaping of the curves of the abdomen, feet, buttocks, chest, shoulders and back.
