back

With so many postures activating the muscles of the front body, the modern yoga practice can sometimes lead to imbalances without us even realizing it. But it doesn't have to be that way. By approaching traditional postures in a slightly different way, this practice is designed to be a full tune-up for your posterior chain--i.e., your trapezius, rhomboids, spinal erectors, glutes, calves and hamstrings. Not only will the practice help you develop a deeper awareness of many of the muscles that move and stabilize your spine, it will also help you to work safely toward achieving deeper backbends.

I found one of your classes on YouTube yesterday and after doing it, that’s when I finally bought a subscription to innerdimensiontv (I was pondering since a while due to a low budget). I think I found a new favorite teacher omg!! Your classes are just incredible.

Just beyond ....like learning geometry for our bodies and souls.. these practices are beautifully and wisely taught. I feel like I am learning so much about the mechanics of my body in midlife and they are moving me to explore the human potential. Extremely helpful for me during a challenging time in my life - thank you so much.

This practice totally surprised me! Much slower than what I tend to practice but felt amazing!

I didn't know I needed it - such a refreshing class! I feel safer in backbends in my everyday practice with this new (for me) approach to activating the back, thank you!

So creative. So well sequenced. And its like you were in my head, your cues were so perfectly timed! We are lucky to have you on this platform.

Aurore Padenou

It was the most terrible yoga session of my life probably... I almost hated every second of it, not because of the practice which is great but because all these positions are so uncomfortable to me which I guess means that I need much more of those cause it's what my body needs... So I'll do it again and maybe one day I will enjoy it and be able to stay more than 10 seconds in a wheel. Thank you for pushing us to explore new horizons

Lynn Mignola
