Heart Openers & Strong Spines is a yoga workshop focused on building strength, flexibility, and confidence in backbending poses while keeping the spine healthy and supported. It combines mindful mobility, core stability, and safe alignment to help students explore heart-opening postures in a balanced way. 🧘‍♀️✨
In Heart Openers & Strong Spines, we explore the art of backbending through a progressive and supportive practice. This workshop focuses on creating space across the chest and shoulders while strengthening the muscles that support the spine, helping you move into heart-opening poses with stability and ease.

Through targeted warm-ups, mobility exercises, and mindful sequencing, you’ll learn how to safely prepare the body for deeper backbends. We will work on activating the core and back body, opening the hips and shoulders, and understanding proper spinal alignment.

This practice is designed to help release tension from daily habits like sitting and forward-folded posture, while cultivating strength and resilience in the back body.
