THURSDAY 20 January 9am-10am - Backbend/Core Flow class.
TUESDAY 25 January 6am-7am / 9am-10am - Forward Bend/Twist Flow class.
THURSDAY 27 January 9am-10am - Backbend/Core Flow class.
This flow focuses on the upper back region to loosen the stiffness there. Engaging the muscles, bones and connective tissue in the thoracic area, post practice you will feel better range of motion in the shoulders, neck, arms and hands. Sun Salutes are interspersed throughout this sequence, at all times checking and engaging the core (spinal muscles and abdominal muscles) to avoid lower back compression. Backbend sequence will be followed by legs lifts to further strengthen the abdominal muscles. Class will be sealed with Savasana (relaxation).
In the forward bends we fully extend the front of the trunk to create space for the abdominal organs, and then in the twisting asanas we rotate the trunk so extra blood flow is delivered to those organs. Extension and twisting of the abdominal region will tone the waistline. The combined forward extension and rotation of the spine, helps to reduce the stiffness in the thoracic spine that can lead to ‘dowager’s hump’. This practice will loosen up the tensions deep within the body, will leave you feeling much freer in body and mind.
