There is so much we bring to the practice of backbending. It has such a deep place in the scope of asana practice and can challenge us in many, many ways. Is it possible that we can bring a new lens to how we see the patterns that hold us?
This workshop will shed light on what can get in the way when we move into any backbending asana. We will connect deeply into our own backbend journey and then discover the unique patterns that hold us, playing with new patterns that can help us find more freedom of movement and space in any backbending position we try.
We will be left seeing that to move back, is to really just open ourselves up...

What you will gain from this weekend immersion?
Over the intensive you will gain insight into your own patterns of practice and how to move in your own unique way. If working with pain or injuries there will be fresh light on how to alleviate and work with these issues. We will use the wider context of anatomy, mindfulness and philosophy to see how we can notice things in a fresh way. This will also help you to see the practice of yoga in a wider context to your life.
