Backbends are an essential component of yoga, so if looking to work on your technique, Backbody is the perfect class for you. A Level 2, 60-minute option led by Steve Jones, class focus is on a general sense of well roundedness as well as the hamstrings, heart opening, and of course, backbends. Follow Steve through this Vinyasa style class, which will have you stretching and strengthening the hamstrings in order to improve your backbends. An ideal option for days when you want to spend more time on your practice perfecting certain movements, you’ll start in Child’s Pose before learning how to “skillfully” move into backbend postures. Dedicating time to your practice as often as possible not only strengthens the body, it also helps you work on the connection to your breath, and enjoy an overall sense of peace and tranquility! Allow Steve to show you the correct way to move into backbends whenever you have an hour to spare.

Steve Jones
Steve was born and raised in England. Although unknown to him at the time, Steve’s first introduction to yoga was when he took a Vipassana meditation course at a Thai Buddhist temple. About 6 months later he walked into his first yoga class and was instantly hooked. During this class he discovered that he could calm and quiet his busy mind while observing his breath just as he did in the temple. He wanted to share what he had learned so he made his way to India and spent a year practicing, studying and training to teach. He has been teaching and living in the Venice/Santa Monica area for the past 20 years.
