Twist and flow – including twisted arm balances and inversions

This class has a moderately paced flow and is most suitable if you’ve been practicing for a little while.

 

We keep connecting to the core – the internal support for the lower back – as we gradually work into deepening backbends, starting simple and working towards the more complex.

We work symmetrically first before taking it into asymmetry with various bow pose and knees-chest-chin (asthanga namaskar) variations.

We balance that with standing and seated hamstring openers and forward bends. The practice culminates in a deep backbend from a supine position (urdhva dhanurasana).

 

Options and modifications for all levels are included.
