Forward Bending Asanas for Stiff People

In today’s Iyengar Yoga sequence, we explore Forward Bending Asanas for Stiff People.

Because seated forward folds are notoriously difficult for students with a stiff upper back, stiff lower back, and/or tight hamstrings, today's Iyengar Yoga practice is full of helpful yoga tips. It's designed especially for those working with stiffness!

Even students who typically experience lower back pain when bending forward may benefit from this practice of forward bending asanas. When you embrace yoga with props, you can open up a whole world of new possibilities 😉.

If you are looking for a yoga practice to target stiffness or if you tend to avoid forward bending poses for another reason altogether, I encourage you to give today's practice a go 🙌🧘‍♂️🧡. You may find that you develop a new appreciation for this often underappreciated family of postures!
