Happy Back: Lower Back , Hips & Core
Move, strengthen and relax your lower back — and learn how to keep it happy!
Service Description
This two-hour yoga workshop is an invitation to slow down and give your lower back the care and support it craves. We’ll explore the relationship between the lower back, pelvis, hips and core, looking at how mobility, strength and stability all play a role in creating a more comfortable and supported back. Through mindful movement, we’ll work on releasing areas of tension while strengthening the muscles that help to stabilise and support the lower back. We’ll look at posture and alignment, helping you understand how the position of your pelvis and the way you move through everyday activities can affect your back. The aim isn’t to hold yourself rigidly or find a single “perfect” posture, but to develop greater awareness and better ways of supporting yourself as you move. We’ll gradually wind down with restorative poses designed to encourage the body to let go of tension. The workshop will finish with a deeply supported Savasana, giving you time to rest, settle and allow the effects of the practice to sink in. You’ll leave feeling more open, grounded and at ease — with a better understanding of how to look after your lower back beyond the workshop, so that the feeling of ease can continue long after you leave. This workshop is suitable for all levels and is especially beneficial if you: >experience regular tightness or stiffness in your lower back >feel tension or restriction around your hips >spend a lot of time sitting or are generally quite sedentary >want to develop greater core and back strength >would like to understand how your pelvis, hips and posture affect your lower back >want practical ways to support and care for your back in everyday life Come as you are.
