Yoga for the kidneys combines back-strengthening exercises with stretches, movements of the torso, and rest. You'll work on spinal mobility and body alignment in different poses.
In this half-hour class, you'll try “Alternating Vertical Stretch”, “Dynamic Cat” and “Upward-Facing Dog”. Move your back smoothly as you perform the Cat movement. You'll finish by lying down to rest.
In backbends, only go as far as you can without uncomfortable compression in your lower back. If you have a back condition, follow your specialist's recommendations.
