Backbends in 35 Minutes – Weekly Advanced Class 332

This class gives you a burst of energising, chest opening backbends within a 35 minute practice. The sequence begins by guiding you in how to lie over blocks to open your upper back and chest. From there you head towards chair backbends beginning with variations of Urdhva Mukha Svanasana and then Viparita Dandasana. Chair backbends are great for opening your chest and bringing elasticity to your spine when you are beginning a longer session of deep backbends, but they are also potent poses to focus on when you are making the most of a limited practice time.
