Excellent backbending class even if you are like me and have no hope of ever being able to do a drop back!

This was just as it was said it would be, to help those of us wanting to expand our practice into dropbacks and explore the ways and poses that will help us get there. I like the workshop type approach that allowed me to learn the new movements. It definitely assumes you already have a strong practice in backbending and you prep through some hand stands as well. I definitely paused the video a few times as we got more into the backbending/drop back preps so that i had time to focus, breathe and let myself let go into the poses. Thank you for making this type of class for those of us learning at home. The teaching was great and I did it!

I really wanted to love this class but it just did not jive with me. I found the sequencing to be inorganic. My body (and mind) weer moving more like a workshop (especially given that I would have to come out of a pose to watch her demo the next transition) than any sort of constructed flow.

Wow-o-wow! If I could give any class 6 stars, this would be my pick.

My family has a history of back injuries and low back pain, so I am very tentative about any kind of backbends. However, the confident and precise cueing made me very comfortable in this class and I came away feeling strong in the core and 6 inches taller.
Jeanie warms up the core, hamstrings, and quads early in the sequences, weaves in twists alleviate tension in the back, and fully prepares the class for the peak pose(s). The class also showed me I was capable of more than I ever realized with the transitions back and forth from wheel and camel.
Anyway, dropbacks will never be my thing -- it s never been a goal of mine to even get there--, but I will return to this class again and again because this class is so well-designed and led.
