Mastering Simplicity Class #03: Finding Ease in the Lower Back

$30.00

The Mastering Simplicity sessions reflect how yoga was once taught, with teacher and student meeting each other with openness and inquisitiveness about what might arise.  Because Donna wishes to teach from what is most current within her practice, there won’t be a detailed description of each monthly class until after it has been recorded.  This is deliberate so that she can create each class as she explores what she is most interested in, in the weeks prior to each class.  This is an invitation to explore and discover new experiences from often familiar practices.

The classes are offered monthly and will consist of a 2- hour livestream class. 1.5 hours of guided practice followed by 30 minutes for questions, reflections, and community connection.

This class was recorded in April 2024.

Recordings will be available for 30 days after purchase, unless you choose to subscribe. Subscriptions offer greater benefits, particularly for teachers, which you can learn more about here.

See the description of this class below for more details.

Offer up every joy,

be awake at all moments to the news

that is always arriving

out of silence.

 

~ Rainer Maria Rilke

Physical Focus: Therapeutic yoga on the floor

What’s Inside: We begin with three questions that can help us determine what we need to do when we feel discomfort or pain in the lower back.  The class progresses from a Body Weather Reading practiced in Corpse Pose to a side-lying Feldenkrais sequence.  Using active core strengthening practices in Constructive Rest Position as a baseline, we move into core strengthening, quadratus lumborum balancing, and psoas releasing practices.  We round off the practice with supine hip mobilization and a passive spinal release using a chair.

Key Focus:  Using a multi-pronged approach, we can experience the effects of practices that release the spine, practices that balance asymmetries, and those that strengthen and stabilize.
