A Sequence for Spinal Mobility
Back and Core

24m
This class focusses on helping to keep your spine mobile so that you can comfortably do all the things you need to do in your life. There's a standing warm-up followed by the same movements repeated in Goddess Pose (Utkata Konasana). The seated sequence continues to move the spine into forward bends, gentle backbends, sidebends and twists and then there's a stretch out before Savasana.
Props required: A blanket to kneel on if needed.
Mat direction: Long edge of the mat facing the screen.
