Tonights gentle and restorative class will offer some poses to relieve lower back pain, a common presentation from students coming to class. Yoga can offer you some simple and effective approaches to help relieve aches and pains, bring awareness to postural habits that might be creating problems and build strength and flexibility to give you confidence in managing or reducing pain going forward. These approaches help us find a way for our bodies to inhabit our practice more comfortably and experience the asanas safely.
