Finding Strength and Balance in Backbends

There are plenty of ways to shortcut your way into a pose, or at least something that looks like the pose on quick inspection, but here we’ll be focusing on integrity over aesthetics.

Backbends have countless benefits, if done mindfully, but have lots of less-than-desirable outcomes if you are ‘chasing the shape’. Through this workshop you will:

 - Increase your understanding of backbends and learn how to apply that to your regular practice

 - Develop a set of tools you can use to strengthen your over-loose bits and open your over-tight bits

- Learn how to keep your spine protected and safe in backbends

 - Intelligently prepare for more complex poses like; wheel, drop backs, bow and plenty more. 

This workshop is for anyone with a regular practice and although there will be some advanced poses, the focus is the direction of travel, rather than destination. 

Contortionists and desk workers will both equally find challenge and benefit.
