Ep 79: All Backbends Are Not The Same! Let's Explore Why...
from Essential Conversations for Yoga Teachers · host Monica Bright
Not all backbends are the same & that might sound obvious at first, but I can’t tell you how many classes I’ve been in, or even taught in my early years, where backbends were treated as one interchangeable category. Whether it was Cobra, Bow, Wheel, or Camel, I was taught to prepare the body in the same way, taught a sequence full of them, and assumed students would be able to do all of them safely.Today, we’re going to talk about the differences, plus alternative ways to help your students prepare for specific backbends without just simply backbending…Strategy Call: Schedule HEREClick HERE to send me a text & let me know your thoughts on this episode!
