Iyengar Yoga for The Spine–General Level
As we begin 2025, today’s class starts with seated forward extensions and twisting postures.
These movements activate the digestive system while releasing any lower back strain accumulated during the busy year-end period. The forward extensions progress up the back and neck area, offering a deep release.
Standing postures then bring vital energy to the pelvis—strengthening, mobilizing, and teaching balance for the year ahead.
Enjoy,
Namaste
