Gravity compresses our anatomy from the head downwards.
The neck, shoulders and arms are the next parts of the body to be crumpled and distorted. Chronic tension in the upper body can result from this structural imbalance. Restricted upper body movement means restricted breathing as well. Therapeutic techniques following the guidelines of BKS Iyengar will be demonstrated on selected students and then practiced by the whole group. As a result of this session you will not only know how to alleviate aches and pains but also how to open your chest to reestablish a respiratory rate that can both stimulate and calm you.
