Core Forward Bends – Weekly Intermediate Class 85

Join To Start Course

Focus

This class focuses on forward bending basics and fundamentals. It includes the key poses janu sirsasana, paschimottanasana, triang mukhaikapada paschimottanasana and upavista konasana. Each pose is presented in a way that will suit students who are working with stiffer bodies. The video will also benefit more experienced students, and give them the opportunity to take things further. You are initially guided in how yoga props can help to create a stable foundation for each pose. The core principles of forward bending are then explored with your spine in a more upright position. Eventually the full forward bends are explored without placing strain on the spine.

Key Poses

Janu sirsasana, paschimottanasana, triang mukhaikapada, upavista konasana.
