Understanding Seated Forward Bends

Forward bending is an act of surrendering to “what is”. While easily said, it’s important to have a road map. As we learn in life “the map is never the territory”. What your body can do may be very different from one day to the next. We must always make adjustments and modifications where necessary, and patience is required.

This class is an effort to keep you and your physical body safe and build understanding step by step while creating the balance necessary for a quiet balanced mind.

This sequence includes:

Paschimottanasana with Blanket

Paschimottanasana with Bent Knees

Paschimottanasana with Straps

Paschimottanasana with Blocks

Paschimottanasana with Bolster and Blanket
