Snail Pose: Opening

Beginner I

Access this free class

This is the first of a series of two classes that prepare you for a yin pose called snail, or karnapidasana. It's a yoga posture that requires a significant amount of flexibility in your back, particularly your lower back and neck, so it's important to progress toward it slowly and carefully. This is Satiya's special skill, and you'll find this yin yoga-like class to feel wonderfully delicious, rejuvenating and releasing for many parts of the body. It will prepare you for the next class in the series: Snail Pose: Deepening.

Wonderful release! Not so easy at times but I stuck with it and felt great at the end.
Loved your calming and guiding instructions, thank you Satiya :-)

A lovely gentle but not easy practice. Made a refreshing contrast to the more vigourous vinyassa practices that I've been doing.
