Release Your Feet & Free Your Lower Back with Claire Murphy
Props used in the open session @ Om Yoga Show Manchester 2015 |
In
this workshop Claire Murphy of Santosha Studio talks participants through a range of movements working
with a small spiky inflatable ball which is a specific prop that really does
get into awkward areas encouraging your body to let go of tensions that have
built up within it.
This
session was spent working with the feet moving on to the gluteal muscles with
focus on releasing the tensions upwards along the hamstrings and into the lower
back. Alternating working with the ball and moving in and out of poses such as
forward bends (Uttanasana) invited self-discovery, assessment and re-assessment
of how the range of movement changes.
