Bend Your Back From Your Legs - Preview

Avatar of Jodi Blumstein
Level 2 - 45 mins

Want to deepen your backbend? Learn one extremely important principle - deeper backbends come from strength, not flexibility. This class will take you through a vinyasa-based backbending sequence while teaching you how to better utilize the strength of your legs to support a deeper bend in your thoracic spine. Includes lunges, eka pada dhanurasana and supported supta virasana. Backbends are incredibly stimulating, so this one will leave you feeling energized! Props Suggested: A bolster or a blanket.
