11.20 Backbends (Camat Kurasana

This is a strong practice focused on activating the deep core in side bends and twists to get into some great backbends. You’ll find some familiar sequencing from the 90 minute class on 11.13 taken into more difficult variations. Peak poses include camat kurasana (“wild thing”), ustrasana, and some variations of kapinjalasana. You’ll find shapes and action repeat a lot to get us into the extensions required for these challenging shapes. Expect hard work and a detailed approach. A good class if you want to strengthen and harness your awareness of your deep core and maintain its strength to support in practicing big shapes. You’ll also come away having had a well rounded solid backbend practice.
