		<description><![CDATA[During my weeklong Yoga Tune Up® Teacher Training with Jill in Hamilton, Ontario this summer, I experienced an awakening of my obliques.  I think of it as my “aha, hello obliques!” moment.

		<description><![CDATA[The obliques are a part of our abdominal muscle group, which also includes the rectus abdominus (the six pack muscles) and the transverse abdominus (Elvis belt).  The obliques are comprised of the internal and external obliques.  Our abdominal organs rely on our four abdominal muscles for support and protection.
Internal Obliques:
