Stretching the front body and awakening the strength of the back body was acknowledged by the Yogis the somatic recipe for cultivating an open heart.
When practiced safely and mindfully backbends are the antidote to our hunched over culture. They have the power to unwind tension, resolve back pain and inspire a sense of joy and fearless openness. Misaligned, they have the capacity to cause pain, injury and limit the progression of our yoga practice.
In this summer asana clinic we'll explore how to keep the legs, hips, arms and shoulders alignedand connected to the earth, so that the spine can unfurl, lengthen and radiate. Appropriate for all levels.
