Mobility: the key to a safe, lifelong asana practice.

Mobility is the body's ability to move freely and easily, it is the body’s ability to engage and control stabilizing muscles to actively move in and out of postures.

Stiffness is often blamed on a lack of flexibility. However, many times stiffness could potentially be caused by underlying weakness in these stabilizing muscles around the joints. The key to a safe and lifelong yoga practice is increasing mobility (moving actively without the help of gravity) instead of only flexibility (moving passively with the help of gravity). 

During this immersion the emphasis will be on mobility of the spine, we will be doing poses to gain a better awareness of our spine, you will become more aware of how you move your torso specially when twisting and back bending, and what is involved within those movement.
