Parvritta Parsvakonasana and Parvritta Trikonasana with the support of a chair
In this class, we’ll explore poses like Parvritta Parsvakonasana and Parvritta Trikonasana with the support of a chair. The chair will help us feel more stable and bring greater awareness to the back body, so we can move with confidence and clarity.
We’ll flow through a family of related postures, connecting the arms and legs in different directions while keeping the trunk long, the front body open, and the back body spacious.
These poses strengthen and extend the body while stimulating the internal organs, supporting healthy movement and natural detoxification. By adding mindful breathing, we’ll awaken energy and leave the practice feeling refreshed and renewed.
Namaste.
