About this class
Hello we start this session like always with a short meditation and a deeper awareness of the chest, heart and breathing. we pause for a few moments, breathe and let our body slowly open. in this exercise we use the yoga strap to experience deeper and more controlled stretches, especially on the sides of the body and the waist, the muscles between the ribs, the abdomen and the deep muscles around the spine. with the strap, we work on opening the shoulders, creating more space in the chest and increasing the flexibility of the upper body. these movements can prepare the body for backbends and help us move with more awareness and control in this path. the goal of the exercise the goal of this session is to create more space in the sides and chest, increase the range of motion of the shoulders and spine, improve awareness of breathing and prepare the body for backbends. when we open the chest with awareness, we can feel the breathing movement better and let the breath flow more freely and deeply in the body. and maybe more importantly, this opening is not just in the body... sometimes when we give space to our heart, we can hear more easily what our heart really wants.
