Focus: the major ankle movements in running: dorsiflexion and plantar flexion of the ankle joint and the big toe

Duration: 50 mins.

Props needed: blocks to use as supports, a folded blanket that can be used to cushion the knees, an elevated surface like any chair or low table

The sessions in the 'Strength and Conditioning' category are not asana sessions, and are not based on the Iyengar tradition.  These are drills that I have found to be useful for and compatible with several asanas in general, and also as preparation for specific asanas.
