Tightness in the calves and ankles can affect your feet and your overall stability in yoga. After you get centered, you’ll practice a standing forward bend on a blanket to release the calves and then stretch the fronts of your ankles in hero pose, plank, up dog, and down dog. Next, you’ll use what you learn from those exercises in standing poses such as lunge, warrior I, pyramid, triangle, and more. Step out of this class with awesome ankles.
