Dancer's Pose: Supple Spine and Shoulders
This is the second in a series of four videos where Fiji guides through the complex needs of the wonderful balancing pose, dancer's pose (natarajasana). Following on from Dancer's Pose: Balances and Binds, this class gets deep into shoulder flexibility and mobility, as well as releasing the muscles around the upper and mid back that can restrict the movement of the shoulders and upper spine. This gradual progression toward full dancers pose also includes backbends, releases for the hip flexors and core work. It will prepare you for the next steps in Dancer's Pose: Workshop and Dancer's Pose: Playful Dancer's Flow.

Always a great class. I just came off a 24 hour flight and this was the stretch I needed while I start the jet lag. It felt like a great massage. Thank you.
I started this with very stiff shoulders and traps, this has completely released all of that tension in such a short class! Thank you Fiji! This a great series as well!
great class! I have...funny shoulders, so I found that in the final shoulder stretch pose with the arm underneath and stretched out I needed to push down with the extended arm to protect my shoulder and support the pose. Hopefully that is helpful for others who can overextend their shoulders!
Thank you and have a wonderful practice!
It feels fantastic! I spent the entire day in front of my computer and this class was exactly what I needed at the moment.
