Focus

This class focuses on standing and seated twists, using a chair for support. It’s designed to help ease stiffness in the thoracic spine and improve flexibility in the lower back’s muscles, tendons, and ligaments. The class is also great for stretching leg muscles and relieving tension throughout the body. These poses are often mixed with other standing poses or used to start a session that includes forward bends and seated twists. Practicing these supported standing and seated twists on their own is beneficial too, as it enables you to fully focus on each pose, maximising their benefits. This class offers a deep dive into the practice of standing and seated twists with the help of a chair, aiming to enhance both physical mobility and overall well-being.
