March Mini Series When practiced safely and properly, backbends help increase mobility in the spine. They also help open the tight muscles in the front of the body from prolonged sitting/standing while strengthening the muscles on the back body that are often over-stretched and weak. This combination of opening the front body and strengthening the back body leads to overall better posture and a feeling of openness and yes, happiness! Join us as we explore safe ways to prepare the body for many of the backbends yoga has to offer! Because we have the Yoga Wall, we are also able to practice backbends that provide spinal traction. April Mini Series Sirsasana (headstand) is also known as “The King of the Asanas.” Over the course of the four-week mini series we will practice the building blocks that help us safely practice Headstand.
