Hey everybody. π I made a new video. This one is a 75-minute, vinyasa-style class at the wall with a focus on backbending. It also includes a fun and rather tricky transition from ustrasana (camel pose) to urdhva dhanurasana (upward bow).
The prep work for this transition includes a number of backbending variations that will help to open the chest, strengthen the legs, and work with your overhead shoulder mobility. The real benefit lies in this work (and the pranayama at the end of class π), so don’t worry if the transition feels out of reach for now, and if it’s easy for you, that’s great, too. π Either way, go slowly and stay with what feels right for your body moment by moment.
If you’re looking for a live led class, you can join me on Thursday mornings at 8 am central. Click here π Ahimsa Yoga Studios to sign up.
