About
This week’s intermediate class features a dynamic vinyasa style Iyengar Yoga sequence. The class starts with an exploration of surya namaskar. Each of the poses contained in this famous sequence of movements are introduced initially in isolation, and are then progressively linked with their companion poses to form a flowing sequence. Eventually the movements of the body are closely synchronised with the movements of the breath. This approach to surya namaskar emphasises safety, builds confidence, and technical understanding. This style of class is both energising and strengthening. Eventually the class heads towards poses that help to build abdominal strength. Again, these poses are introduced initially as preparatory stages, and are then linked with dynamic movements that synchronise with the breath.
