This week in Nithya Priyan School of Yoga, the theme of Backbend Frontbends leads us in transitions from a traction backbend to a forward bend. From bridge pose to Shoulderstands in Basic class, to Wheel Pose and Downdog transitions to Essential, and kicking over from wheel and forearm wheel pose positions in Intermediate, this challenging and dynamic week will be broken down into a progression based practice to benefit all levels of proficiency. See you on the mats!
This week in Nithya Priyan School of Yoga, what is the best way to approach poses that scare or intimidate you? Fear comes from uncertainty, unfamiliarity, confusion, doubt and insecurity. But in a safe and supportive environment, with a structured progression and confident, knowledgeable and compassionate guidance, we can all find our way forward past our walls and limitations. Let’s celebrate that in this week’s inversion focused Theme and put perspective to our fears. See you on the mats!
This week in Nithya Priyan School of Yoga, FlipGrip Backbends are strong leveraged backbends that require shoulder mobility to effect an arm overhead stretch.

This week in Nithya Priyan School of Yoga, contraction backbends are downward facing bends that require the strength of your posterior chain to pull ourselves up against the pull of gravity. The Locust shape is a particular family of contraction bends that work the lower back the most, but with proprioception and guidance we can learn to redistribute the work towards middle and upper back. See you on the mats!
This week in Nithya Priyan School of Yoga, we’re not just twisting; we’re adding a bind to that twist! This week, expect to work on creating length and mobility through rotation in the spine. The addition of internal rotation in the shoulders with the chest opener adds the element of leverage. Join us all week as we work on a variety of bound twists.
This week in Nithya Priyan School of Yoga, we’re working on creating space in the front body through dropbacks. Explore the fundamentals of wheel pose in our Basic class, discover standing backbends in our Essential class, and combine them both by dropping back from a standing backbend to wheel in our Intermediate class.
Join us all week as we guide you into find that stretch in your backbends!
This week in Nithya Priyan School of Yoga, we’re working on the foundation for most inversions – the forearms. A strong base in any inversion starts from the activation of the shoulders, which is further supported by a stable core. Join us all week as we work on finding that activation through our forearms.

This week in Nithya Priyan School of Yoga, we’re working on transversal splits. This variation of splits utilises straight-legged hip abduction. As we stretch our inner legs, we will also be awakening out outer hips and glutes so that our practice is anchored in stability and safety. See you on the mats!
This week in Nithya Priyan School of Yoga, we’re working on bow backbends.
