Note:
This session includes inversions. Inversions might not be suitable in some cases, and should always be done after adequate preparation.
Twisting actions can be done all along the length of the back (the spine). Some twists involve strong abdominal action, and are therefore not suitable in case of any abdominal tenderness, surgery etc. and for women during menstruation.
