# Event Details - **Event Name**: Backbends: Asymmetry, Shape & Expression - **Event Start and End Date**: Sat, 20 Jun, 2026 at 02:00 pm – Sat, 20 Jun, 2026 at 03:30 pm - **Event Description**: Explore asymmetrical backbends like Dancer, Pigeon & one-legged Wheel. Build strength, mobility & awareness of your body's unique patterns.About this EventAsymmetrical backbends invite something different from the body. Rather than moving evenly on both sides, we begin to notice imbalance — the side that feels open, the side that resists, and everything in between. These shapes can feel playful, expressive, and sometimes humbling, but they’re also a powerful way to deepen awareness of how your body actually moves, rather than how you think it should move.In this class, we’ll take time to prepare the spine, shoulders, hips, and quads so that asymmetrical shapes feel supported rather than forced. There will be a steady, intelligent flow to warm the body, alongside focused drills for strength and control — especially through the back line, shoulders, and hip mobility — to help make these shapes more accessible.We’ll explore key asymmetrical backbends such as Natarajasana (Dancer), Eka Pada Rajakapotasana (Pigeon), and variations of one-legged Wheel. Along the way, you’ll be encouraged to work with both sides of your body, noticing differences without trying to “fix” them — just getting to know them more clearly. Depending on the group, we may also explore partner-assisted and prop-supported variations to create more space, stability, and confidence in the shapes.At its core, this practice is less about achieving symmetry and more about understanding your asymmetry — your strengths, your limitations, your patterns — and using movement as a form of self-study.You’ll leave with a clearer, more grounded way of approaching asymmetrical shapes with strength and curiosity.What we’ll explore:- Preparing spine, shoulders, hips, and quads for asymmetrical backbending- Building strength and stability for one-sided shapes- Mobility work to support safe progression into deeper poses- Options and variations for different levels of experienceIf there’s a particular asymmetrical backbend you’re curious about, feel free to message us ahead of time.---Cancellations: Please note that we are not able to offer refunds for courses & workshops. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/london/backbends-asymmetry-shape-and-expression/100001990023048508 - **Event Categories**: workshops - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 27.8, max: 27.8, currency: GBP ## Event venue details - **city**: London - **state**: EN - **country**: United Kingdom - **location**: SOMA Wandsworth Yoga - **lat**: 51.4652072 - **long**: -0.1837184 - **full address**: SOMA Wandsworth Yoga, Clove Hitch Quay, London, United Kingdom ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Backbends: Asymmetry, Shape & Expression - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/ff781981a99671416a9c6e3d291824a5443a9947b0f6e69939925d012de0dd3e-rimg-w1200-h600-dcebd9f7-gmir.jpg?v=1779811684 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Backbends: Asymmetry, Shape & Expression being held? - **A:** Backbends: Asymmetry, Shape & Expression takes place on Sat, 20 Jun, 2026 at 02:00 pm to Sat, 20 Jun, 2026 at 03:30 pm at SOMA Wandsworth Yoga, Clove Hitch Quay, London, United Kingdom. - **Q**: Who is organizing Backbends: Asymmetry, Shape & Expression? - **A:** Backbends: Asymmetry, Shape & Expression is organized by SOMA Yoga. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
