Awakening the Back Body

A supportive class that activates the back of the body and improves posture through controlled movements.

Sessie van vandaag

In this lesson, the attention shifts toward the back of the body, including the spine and the muscles that support good posture. These movements help counteract the effects of sitting and daily habits that round the shoulders and back. Move slowly and focus on feeling length rather than effort.

As you practice, keep your breathing steady and comfortable. Back focused poses work best when done with awareness and restraint. If you feel compression or strain, reduce the intensity and return to a smooth rhythm of breath.

This lesson helps build strength and awareness in areas that often go unnoticed. Over time, these movements support better alignment and a more upright, comfortable posture.
