REDISCOVER YOUR SPINE'S NATURAL CURVES

Journey through your spine in this six step course which helps you to care for your back by moving mindfully and celebrating its natural curves all the way from the neck to the tailbone. Our spine truly is the engine that moves us and gives us the ability to walk and to move in every direction. Yet, many of us suffer from back pain. Our increasingly sedentary lifestyles coupled with spending time on phones and computers strains our backs and necks. The importance of the spine is embedded in our language: we speak of having a backbone which gives us courage; when spooked we acknowledge the shivers that run down our spine and we bend over backwards when we care about something. This course gives you the opportunity to care for your back. Please take medical advice before embarking on this course if you suffer from severe back pain, any spinal conditions or are unsure of its suitability.

This course is: 

  • Gentle
  • Suitable for beginners
  • Supports spinal health
  • Counteracts the effects of desk-based working
  • Offers wrist free classes

Healthy Back (1) Spinal Warm Up

The first class in our spinal health class is an all-levels movement class to help to understand our relationship with the spine. First of all, we learn the anatomical principles of keeping the spine healthy and then move on energetic jumping to feel how the body moves, and then a focus on the feet, to help us ground down, so we can stand taller. The feet are absolutely crucial to spinal health! With gentle, fluid movements to open the hips and side stretch, this class is a crucial first step in keeping your spine fluid and mobile (note that this series is not for you if you have back problems). You will need two blocks and a strap and a rolled up mat or swimming aid noodle.
