Tight hamstrings can result from hours of sitting as well as from extreme athleticism (as you know the hamstrings are key players in powerful movements such as sprinting and jumping).
Hamstring issues can lead to the weakening or overuse of surrounding muscles and as a result -chronic knee, hip, and lower back issues.
Workshop goal:
Increase flexibility of the hamstring and hips by focusing on alignments of the feet, knees as a conscience bring the freedom to the back body and lower back.
Suitable for:
beginners and experienced yogis. This workshop will teach you to take ownership of your practice and confidence in alignment and movement.
Challenge for advanced Yogis - deeper exploration into poses such as Bird of Paradise and Hanumanasa (Splits) and King Pigeon.
Booking an advice advisable due to popularity of workshops.
