This 75-min workshop focuses on flexibility & strength for backbends and techniques for scorpion and half scorpion.
In this workshop you will learn:
- Backbending anatomy insights
- Backbend warm up
- Active flexibility drills for backbends
- The mechanics of scorpion and half scorpion pose (on the forearms) including preparations, modifications, and progressions.
- Back strengthening
- How to utilize your hips and glutes to prevent low back pain
- Stretching routine you can follow along to keep working on your backbends after the class (all registrants have access to the workshop recording)
Scorpion is an advanced pose, however, even as beginner, it’s helpful to know what to work on to get there with time. Most of the class covers preparatory drills, and the pose itself is just a small part of the class. Join with an open heart.
FAQ
Am I too beginner for this?
No. I remember joining all kinds of workshops in the beginning of my yoga practice and they inspired me so much. We all start somewhere. The only prerequisite is a commitment to yourself, dedication, and willingness to try.
What if I can’t attend live?
If you are not able to join live, the recording will help you just as much. Recording will be available on the same day and saved until December 26th so you can practice at any time, catch up or re-do it.
Can I ask questions during/after the workshop?
Of course, I will answer your questions. I’m doing this for you and I would love you to make the most of it & learn a lot.
Do I have to be flexible to join this workshop?
No, this workshop is for everyone from beginner to advanced, especially good for those of us starting stretching as adults. You will be guided through each step, and will receive guidance and modifications/progressions to make each pose accessible for your body.
