Most people think that backbends are BAD for their back and very DIFFICULT to do.

HOWEVER, when doing a backbend (with good instruction, of course) the spine will move more deeply

into the body verses being out (sitting at the computor, ect. and bending forward creates the spine to

move out). People with bulging disks, rounded shoulders, neck and back pain can find the solution

to these problems when backbends are done correctly. There have been many articles written in

Yoga Journal about how to do backbends. One of the most recent was written by Desiree Rumbaugh,

certified Anusara Teacher. Learning to do backbends with using the back plane of the body

can make back bends easier, fun, and safe. Joyce Savitz, certified Anusara Teacher in Jacksonville Beach,

Florida will be teaching a seminar on backbends (Trusting with Security) in May, 2008.

Come and experience how fun it is to bend backwards!
