Strike a Pose Saturday: A Camel Pose for Everyone [VIDEO]

Thought I would do something a little different this week. People learn in many different ways. Simple pictures and reading works great for a lot of people but for those of us who are  more “visual” learners a video is very helpful.

The Mutual of Omaha airstream came to Asheville, NC this past June and I hopped right on to share my story.
