BACKBENDS

WORKSHOP

Deepen your practice and learn new tools

to enhance your experience of backbending poses

with Klara on Wednesday 12th & Thursday 13th of April

TWO DAYS OF BENDING BACK

Our evolution as human species has been coming into a more upright, expanded posture yet in the past few years we have taken a radical step back with the rise of phone and computer use that makes us curl up again. "Evolve" means to expand, unfold and when our posture unfolds and we create more space internally, we feel better, happier, more energised. 


Your spine is designed to bend back! It is a perfect design, let's use the full potential of it on Wednesday 12th of April and Thursday 13th of April.


Wednesday : Backbending blueprint. Learn the tools to prepare the body for experiencing backbends in a new way. Learn how other parts of the body are involved when bending back. This is a very effective sequence of specific movements, poses and exercises. Taught more in a workshop style.


Thursday : Think of this class as an aftercare after Wednesday's class... it usually takes for the muscles up to 24 hrs to feel the work you've done, especially if we are using muscles we rarely use (and let's be honest : how often do we dive deep into backbends?). In this class you will move through a flow of poses that integrate the workshop you've done the day before. Beautiful way to give your body a full package of back care.


These two classes are to be booked together for the full experience ( two 2hr classes ). Workshop is for all levels as there are variations offered for individual poses, however some experience in Yoga is required for body awareness. Students coming from all styles of Yoga will benefit from this workshop. ( The workshop is inspired by Klara's studies with teachers from Ashtanga, Hatha yoga and functional mobility fields and styles ).

ABOUT KLARA

Klara took on Yoga as a practice in 2012 in Cork, Ireland and practiced with great dedication at Himalaya Yoga valley for two years. In 2014 she went to their centre in Goa, India to complete her first Teacher training. She’s been teaching ever since, starting in India, then at retreat centres in Cambodia and in 2015 life brought her to Nepal where she taught yoga at a primary and secondary school. It was there when she saw very clearly the vast benefits of Yoga on so many levels, in so many people. It was also there when she committed herself to teaching Yoga more as a medicine rather than physical sequence; to offer the plethora of tools that we have available in Yogic studies so people can learn them and use them in daily living.
