Yoga on Rollerblades? Mobile Yoga Workout
I’ll be the first to admit it: I have fallen down and/or lost my balance once or twice during especially challenging yoga classes. Some poses are tough. Tree pose can be hard enough executed while standing still (with a sticky mat firmly anchoring my feet to the floor), but now imagine doing some of those poses while moving … while skating … on rollerblades!
Wait. I know what you’re thinking: You’re thinking this is an April Fool’s prank? Yoga on rollerblades? Well, as difficult as it may initially sound, this is not a prank. Mobile Yoga Workout, developed by longtime rollerblade and yoga instructor Kris Fondran, combines the aerobic benefits of skating with the mindfulness and stress-reducing qualities of yoga.
The workout takes the long, graceful pushes and gliding of rollerblading and incorporates some of the easier standing poses. I’m pretty interested in trying it out. Remember rollerblading? I haven’t done it in years, but it was fun!
And to prove this is not an April Fool’s joke, here’s a demonstration video of the Mobile Yoga Workout in action:
