The Secrets of Lotus Hips (@ Yoga Place)

Sunday 12th September, 10.30am-1.30pm, £30 (concessions £25) or £50 for booking this with the Secrets of Bending Backwards on the same day

**** As featured in the FT's Weekend magazine ****

Free your hips and liberate your lower back! Learn how Anusara's Universal Principles of Alignment can help you safely open up your hips to relieve everyday lower back tension & pain, take unnecessary stress off your knees and ankles, and release trapped creative and emotional energy. We’ll be exploring some anatomy as well as putting the principles into action in a deep hip-opening practice.

Suitable for anyone who feels their hips, lower back or knees hold them back.

Bookings through Yoga Place on info@yogaplace.co.uk or 020 7739 5195. www.yogaplace.co.uk

 

The Secrets of Bending Backwards (@ Yoga Place)

Sunday 12th September, 2.30-5.30pm, £30 (concessions £25) or £50 for booking this with the Secrets of Lotus Hips on the same day


Bend back behind you with confidence and ease! Many of us find backbends physically or emotionally challenging, but by learning to apply the Anusara Universal Principles of Alignment you’ll learn how to safely open the front body, align the shoulders and hips, take the strain off your lower back and build the courage to go deeper. Moving from baby backbends towards more challenging poses such as kapotasana (pigeon) and backdrops, this workshop is suitable for anyone with 6 months+ experience in yoga who feels they could dive deeper in their backbending.

Bookings through Yoga Place on info@yogaplace.co.uk or 020 7739 5195. www.yogaplace.co.uk
