Yamuna Body Rolling (YBR), a revolutionary approach to health and fitness, consists of a series of routines using various size balls. Going far beyond random movement and stretch, YBR allows you to work specific muscles in detail to create suppleness in tight areas and optimize range of motion. YBR has the potential to create positive, permanent change in the body. Yamuna Body Rolling: stimulates bone, reeducates muscle, relieves stress, creates space in joints, lengthens the spine, increases circulation, frees body restrictions and promotes healing.

What is it? It’s Health, Fitness & Massage rolled into one! Yamuna Body Rolling (YBR) is a revolutionary approach to health and fitness using balls designed exclusively for this practice. It consists of a series of routines using 6 to 10-inch balls. Unlike other ball exercises, YBR goes far beyond random movement and stretch. It allows you to work specific muscles in detail, to create suppleness in tight areas and optimize range of motion. YBR has the potential to create positive, permanent changes in the body.

Yamuna Body Rolling:

• Stimulates bone
• Reeducates muscle
• Relieves stress
• Creates space in joints and spine
• Increases circulation
• Frees body restrictions

How does it work? Yamuna Body Rolling works the way a hands-on practitioner works – only using a ball. The ball replaces hands as it moves on muscles to stretch them, dislodge tension and discomfort, increase blood flow, and promote healing.

Lying over the ball, you literally roll your body out almost like dough, stretching and elongating your muscles. The YBR routines follow specific sequences that match the body’s own logic and order. Starting where each muscle begins, at its origin, you roll toward where it attaches to the point called its insertion.

The Yamuna Body Rolling practice has earned respect from chiropractors, physical therapists, Yoga instructors, Pilates and Gyrotonic instructors, massage therapists, body workers, fitness instructors and dance teachers across the country.

Who’s a good body rolling candidate? You! Whether you’re young or old, a fitness buff or a couch potato, rolling with a YBR Ball can help you feel better, more vibrant, more alive! You’ll have a “ball” toning, strengthening, and realigning your body. This cutting-edge fitness practice will make you leaner, longer and stronger. Yamuna Body Rolling also prevents injury and heals many structural body problems. It’s a workout, a massage, and a chiropractic session all in one!
