**CAVEAT** If you have a bulging disc greater than 30% this may not be a good class for you. If you have SI Joint issues that prevent you from tilting the pelvis backwards even slightly, then don't do this class YET! There are some structural things that need to be addressed first.
I created this class to help students who are experiencing a stiff low back that don't have a lot of range of motion during extension - so think up-dog or cobra. The idea here is to create some mobility in the lower lumbar/ sacral region to start to restore motion. If it's painful, back off! If it feels like there's pressure, that's okay, just don't push beyond what feels doable. We are trying to guide the mobility NOT force it!
Because the low back often gets tight because of weak glutes, we do some level one glute stability work in today's class as well.
You'll need: a chair, blanket and bolster or something similiar.

There are 12 Myofascial Trains in the body. One of them is the SFL, the superficial front line. There's also the SBL, superficial back line. Both connect the feet all the way to the jaw and base of the skull. They go up the legs, cross the pelvis and up the chain.
I say all the time that e...
