There are good reasons why we should practice backbend. Based is experience, it will heal the spine, as long as it is done right. To do a good backbend requires support, breath and patience.

Thanks for the tips Lucas. It inspires me to practice more the back bends, sometimes it frustrates me because I can’t do it properly. Hope to do it perfectly soon.

I hate backbends but I wanted to learn it, same as what you said above about Yoga students. I am not in a hurry learning it but I wanted to do it perfectly in the future. I am afraid to risk if I would hurry my process of learning it. Thanks for the reminder Lucas
