Supporting the Back through Arm and Leg Actions – A Gentle, Supported Practice

A series of quiet asanas in seated, standing, and supine positions, to understand the relationship between the limbs and the trunk.  We focus on broadening/ spreading actions at the lower limbs (legs), and the upper limbs (arms).  This activates the upper and the lower back, while ensuring there is no narrowing/ pinchingAlthough this can certainly be done as a stand-alone session, we recommend the session Moving from Symmetry to Asymmetry – A Gentle Practice as a first step.
