The Yoga Makeover workshop was hopefully inspirational to the students attending it. My hope was to give students the knowledge and the understanding with deep appreciation of the muscles that we use to 'enhance our asanas. Based on Anusara Theme, we worked into our 'inner spiral' 'outer spiral' ' shoulder loop' and 'heart softening'. There were a lot of transformations made in the poses by students who felt they weren't able to do so in the 'past'. Some students who had well rounded backs and other back issues to neck issues, we used the breaths and Anusara verse of adjustment to bring the students into their highest potential. 'Transformation' was the key word, and I was more than happy to see students doing yoga in the most of their ability.
Cynthia has back issues, so going into Paschimottasana is challenging for her. Whenever she goes into any forward bend, her back rounds off. But with inner spiral, and creating space to her lower back and hips, she's created 'space' to her lower spine while she maintains her length through the crown of her head. She's now able to guide herself half way into Paschimottasana. Transformation.
