Many people come to yoga for relief of upper back pain, whether it is as minor as neck and shoulder tension or as major as degenerative disc disease. This workshop will emphasize poses to address poor posture, tightness, reversed neck curve, shoulder dislocation, scoliosis, and kyphosis of the upper back and explore movements that strengthen and bring flexibility to the neck, shoulders, and upper back. 

Let go of the burdens on your shoulders and upper back and fly high with new wings of freedom!
