Spinal Flow

 - 
Duration: 
23 mins

Do you get tired after a long day at work? Do you need a short 20 min 'pick me up' session to get your energy flowing and helping you to re-balance? Then this class is for you!

Many of us come home at the end of the day tired and ready to flop in front of the TV with a (probably well deserved) glass of wine after a hard day's work. So, instead of convincing yourself that you are simply too tired to do any yoga, now all you have to do is convince yourself to lie down... and the rest will take care of itself!

This class is a simple posture based flow - using the breath and simple poses to encourage flexibility and movement, working from the floor up. Your body - and mind - will love these slow healing stretches. 


This short class is part of a three part programme that has been specially designed by Anouschka who has over 15 years experience in teaching classes and courses - constantly exploring new ways of helping us all to enjoy new and innovative forms of Dru Yoga. This set of three classes (Chakra Flow, Spinal Flow and Power Flow) give us a new approach to Dru Yoga classes. They begin from lying in the prone position and move through a series of linked movements - into a perfect posture flow. And although we stay close to the floor, these classes encourage a full range of movement and subtle strength training without being overpowering. Perfect for after a long day!




This Spinal Flow class includes the following: 

  • activation through arms stretches, lying twist and extended Child with side stretch (banana-asana) 
  • Move from the Child into Cat and onwards into Cobra/ Sphinx 
  • Weaving Cat
  • Tiger
  • Parigrasana (the Beam pose with lateral extension
)
  • The Plank
  • To complete relax in Makarasana.


Brilliant. Now you can have that glass of wine!

At 20 mins I find this sequence is perfect as a short class to ease you into your yoga flow and remember you can also use this as a prelude to your main posture practice. Enjoy.
