Backbends and Inversions

At the end of every ashtanga yoga practice we do backbends and finishing poses to balance and calm the body/mind. In this course we will explore three of the main postures in this area; urdhva dhanurasana (upward facing bow), sarvangasana (shoulder stand) and sirsasana (headstand). Preparatory poses, correct alignment, special modifications, and the use of props will all be considered.

This course is appropriate for anyone who has practiced yoga for at least 6 months and wishes to round out their practice and transition to more advanced classes.

Date: Mondays | May - 5 - 19 | 7:30–9:00pm
