Increase strength, speed, and endurance for any style of kayaking by applying innovative mind-body exercises based on the Feldenkrais Method®. Learn how to improve your paddling posture to limit muscle strain and reduce the chance of injury. Improve comfort in your back, discover easier action in your arms, and enhance your balance for leaning, turning, edging, and bracing. Bring a mat or thick blanket to lie on that’s large enough for rolling from side to side. A yoga mat with a blanket on top works well. Large furniture moving blankets are also optimal.
