I loved this practice of really focused work for the shoulders, upper back and spine. We approached backbends for this month by working the actions for thoracic extension in different planes of movement and orientation. We work the building blocks for deep ustrasana that can ultimately become kapotasana, scorpion, and raja kapotasana poses. This months goal was to work more foundational poses in deeply extensive ways to build greater capacity.
You’ll feel really worked, but in a grounded way. And you’ll gain a greater knowledge of where to work for deeper backbends in your repertoire. A really great class if you want to do backbends but not full wheel. If you want to work on perfecting ustrasana (camel pose), and work foundations in bigger ways.
