How to Bring Back Work Into Your Class
Mobilize First
Extension comes easier once the spine has already moved. Plan a calm mobility exercise before swan.
Add the Counter-Movement
After a lot of flexion, the group will welcome some extension. It makes the class feel complete by the end.
Take Complaints Seriously
Ask before class if anyone has back trouble. Each exercise page also tells you when to be careful.
