Yoga for the back

Back pain is considered the most common health complaint of our time. It can be caused by chronic (often psychological) stress, but also by weak back muscles. The latter is actually a frequent cause, because many people sit all day at work, and the longer we sit, the greater the strain.

Many people discover yoga while looking for an effective exercise system for back pain. With precise instructions, this class pays particular attention to neck and back problems. The focus of this therapeutic class is strengthening and stabilising the postural system through core-strengthening exercises, with an emphasis on backbends for mobility. It’s also about passing on the joy of movement. The goal is an easy, upright posture in everyday life. The classes are suitable for beginners and experienced practitioners alike.

This class is not suitable during pregnancy, as the focus is on core work and backbends, and core strengthening and intense backbends should not be done while pregnant.
