I was thinking this morning about why there are twists in all my sessions!!!
Twists are much more than simply “stretching your back”.
When we practise twists, we’re exploring how the spine, shoulders, ribs and hips move together.
A good twist can help us develop:
✨ Spinal mobility
✨ Awareness of our posture
✨ Strength and stability through the body
✨ Better coordination between breath and movement
✨ A sense of space around the ribs and chest
But here’s something important…
More twist doesn’t necessarily mean better twist. 🧘♀️
Yoga isn’t about forcing your body into the biggest shape possible. It’s about noticing what’s happening, working within your own comfortable range and using your breath to stay present.
Sometimes the smallest movement, done with awareness, can teach us the most.
