!!!DIES IST EINE ENGLISCHE LIVE-STREAM KLASSE. Wir schicken dir einen Zoom meeting link. Das Zoom Meeting beginnt ungefähr 15min vor Klassenbeginn damit wir uns begrüßen könnn!!!

In our Jivamukti Basic classes, we explore basic postural alignment and principles of yoga philosophy that serve as the building blocks for developing a balanced yet profound yoga practice.

Today’s class will be a special focusing on Backbends. Backward bending helps us move forward into our future with grace and freedom, not only by relieving tightness in the thighs, abdomen, chest, throat, and face but also by releasing related fears and other negative emotions that may be held in those areas. After a warm-up and a closer look at sun salutations, we will explore in detail backbends such as seated virasana (Hero), supta virasana (Reclined Hero), shalabhasana (Locust), dhanurasana (Bow), ardha chakrasana (Half Wheel), urdhva dhanurasana (Upward Bow Seat = Full Wheel), salamba sarvangasana (Supported Shoulder Stand), halasana (Plow) and matsyasana(Fish). The class will also take a look at important backbend preparations and counterposes including hints for a safe and effective backbending practice.

This class format is suitable for beginner yoga students and anyone interested in investigating yoga practice through its foundational principles. Here, you will learn “from scratch” how to properly approach the individual asanas (yoga postures) that are commonly practiced in our Three Boons and Jivamukti Open classes, presented in a vinyasa (sequenced) format.

DEUTSCH:

In unseren Jivamukti Basic Klassen erforschen wir die grundlegenden Ausrichtungsprinzipien der Yogapraxis und die dahinter stehende Yoga-Philosophie, welche die fundamentalen Bausteine für die Entwicklung einer ausgewogenen und tief gehenden Yoga-Praxis sind.

Die heutige Klasse ist ein Special mit Backbends Focus. Rückbeugen helfen uns, mit Anmut und Freiheit in unsere Zukunft zu gehen, indem sie nicht nur Verspannungen in den Oberschenkeln, im Bauch, in der Brust, im Hals und im Gesicht lösen, sondern auch Ängste und andere negative Emotionen, die in diesen Bereichen gespeichert sein können, lösen. Nach einem Warm-up und einem genaueren Blick auf Sonnengrüße werden wir grundlegende Rückbeugen im Detail erforschen, so z.B.: virasana (Heldensitz), supta virasana (liegender Heldensitz), shalabhasana (Heuschrecke), dhanurasana (Bogen), ardha chakrasana (Halbes Rad), urdhva dhanurasana (Ganzes Rad), salamba sarvangasana (Schulterstand), halasana (Pflug), matsyasana (Fisch). In der Klasse werde wir uns zudem mit wichtigen Vorbereitungs- und Ausgleichsposen sowie Tips für eine sichere und effektive Rückbeugenpraxis befassen.

Diese Klasse eignet sich für Yoga-Anfänger und für alle, die daran interessiert sind, die Yoga-Praxis aus der Sicht ihrer Grundprinzipien anzugehen. Hier lernst du „von Grund auf“, wie du die einzelnen Asanas (Yogastellungen), die wir in unseren Three Boons und Jivamukti Open Klassen dann im Vinyasa (auf fließenden Yogasequenzen basierte Klassen) unterrichten, richtig ausführst.
