Twists and Straps

Class Description

Effective twisting requires a thoughtful balance between spinal length, core engagement, and shoulder mobility rather than simply forcing rotation. In this two hour workshop we'll look at how we prepare the upper body, shoulders, and hips so that we can access deeper, more supportive twists. Along with the physical practice, we will explore some of the traditional philosophy and energetic theory behind spinal rotation, offering optional binds using straps for those who want to experiment with leverage and containment. There will be time for breathwork and an extended guided meditation to finish. Suitable for all levels of experience as options will be given but please get in touch in advance if you have any particular health or physical conditions that affect your movement. Cancellations with more than 7 days notice will be refunded in full. Cancellations with more than 48 notice but less than 7 days will receive a 50% refund and cancellations within 48 hours do not qualify for a refund.
