Last sequence of this series
sequence No. 6

This series of sequences was designed during the Covid lockdown in March 2020 to encourage self-practice in the absence of in-person classes. Each Saturday, I shared one practice sequence for seven days before I posted the next one. The intention was to encourage fellow practitioners to continue their practice and stay inspired despite the social isolation. Shortly after, I set up live Zoom online classes, and some beginner practitioners joined the class. Five years have passed, and that beginner class has now become an intermediate level with a group of solid practitioners.
It's admirable that most of them now build their own sequences and continue to deepen their self-practice at home. This prompted me to share these sequences once again with a word of encouragement for our community to begin their self-practice if they haven't done that already. Let self-practice remain fundamental in our yoga practice even when we have access to online or in-person classes.

And I thank my dearest Shahab Mi Do who demonstrated the asanas.

Sequence No. 2:
An all-level sequence leading towards registering the extension of the spine in mind.

*Note: If headstand, or shoulder stand (Salamba Sirsasana or Salamba Sarvangasana) or any other positions aren’t part of your practice, simply skip them.

This series of sequences was designed at the beginning of the Covid period, in March 2020, as a way of starting our self-practice in the absence of face-to-face classes. Each Saturday, I shared a sequence and we were supposed to practice every day for a week to receive the next sequence. It was a way of encouraging each other to stay inspired and practice during Covid’s period of isolation. Shortly afterwards, Live Zoom online classes were set up so that we could practice together again, but virtually. Interestingly, some students started their yoga practice from scratch at this point. Five years have passed, and our beginners’ class, made up of students with no knowledge of yoga, has become an intermediate class with a group of practitioners with a solid practice. It’s very encouraging to see that most of them build their own sequences and come with valid questions to deepen their self-practice at home. This observation prompted me to share these sequences once again to encourage our community to start their self-practice if they haven’t already, even in the presence of in-person or online classes.

Awakening the lower back through forward bends

The family of forward bends, with its soothing and calming effect on the nervous system, is the most delicate family of asanas in terms of accessibility for the lower back. In this workshop, we look at different categories of asana (standing, forward bends, backbends, inversions) to understand how we can awaken our backs. In this way, by becoming aware of the back, we can achieve our best accessibility for the back, especially the lower back, even in forward bends.

Our Story

Yoga is the Journey of the self, through the self, to the self.

My Name is Nasim, and I am a certified Iyengar yoga teacher at the Junior Intermediate II level. Iyengar yoga is a method of Hatha yoga which is characterized by great attention to details and precise focus on body-mind alignment. In this method of yoga, by using a few simple props, students with different capabilities can gradually build up strength, confidence and flexibility without the threat of strain or injury.

I began my training with Mahyar Raz in Tehran and have been teaching Iyengar yoga since 2010. In 2014 I moved to Canada and dedicated the next two proceeding years to study with several senior teachers in North America. Among them Donna Fornelli, Louie Ettling and Tim Ruddy largely have influenced me. In 2017 I received my Junior Intermediate I certification from Iyengar Yoga association of Canada (IYAC). In 2018 and 2019 I directly studied with Iyengar family in Pune, India, and later in 2019 I received my Junior Intermediate II ceritification from IYAC. Currently residing in Montreal, I am working towards my Junior Intermediate III certification.

Accessibility and simplicity through precise instructions have been my goal in teaching. I am eager to bring yoga to people regardless of age, gender or physical conditions; therefore, I actively commit to support my students to shape a constructive relationship with their body and mind.
