Challenging Backbends for Beginners

This class is all about exploring backbends, from the gentle in sphinx pose (salamba bhujangasana) and cobra (bhujangasana), to the more challenging in upward facing dog (urdhvamukha shvanasana) and camel pose (ustrasana). Anastasia's care and attention help you move into the more challenging poses with stability and awareness, while balancing them with the best counter poses to keep you back feeling strong, healthy and relaxed.

I always shy away from backbends. I will continue to revisit this class until they are easy for me. Thanks again.
Step by step, your teaching got me there - I loved learning this! Your gentle humor was terrific - and the shorebird peeking over your shoulder during your intro was a good omen! Many thanks!
Thank you Anastasia. That felt wonderful. I like your method of giving direction.
