Focus

Discover the synergies between standing poses and forward bends in this class. It emphasises the shared techniques, actions, and benefits between these two distinct asana groups, shedding light on their interconnectedness. Practice this sequence independently for a fantastic way to elongate your hamstrings. Alternatively, if you’ve got more time, it can prepare you for a more extended session that dives deeper into seated forward bends. Standing poses are more than just static positions; they’re a dynamic way to prime your body for the nuances of seated forward bends. Explore specific asanas and variations within the standing pose asana group that resonate closely with the principles of forward bending. Both groups target analogous muscle groups and leverage similar techniques to unlock flexibility and space. Standing forward bends can also offer an added advantage for those who grapple with stiffness in the hamstring muscle group. Being on your feet can grant you enhanced mobility, allowing you greater range to move your limbs. This not only helps in maintaining a strong spine alignment but also ensures those with limited mobility can still reap the benefits without discomfort.
