In the next round a couple of extra poses are added in - a seated spinal roll back (which I explain at the beginning of the class) and Upward Plank Pose (Purvottanasana). Coming down to the floor for a seated sequence you'll do Revolved Thunderbolt Pose aka Kneeling Pose (Upward Plank Pose), Camel Pose (Ustrasana), Sage Bharadvaja's Twist (Bharadvajasana) and Reclined Easy Pose (Supta Sukhasana).
Props needed: You might need blocks and a blanket.
