Whether you are using a chair to deepen a backbend or a block to reach the floor in a forward fold, these props are tools to help your body open without strain. I personally guide your adjustments, using props to ensure your spine stays aligned, so you get the maximum benefit of every movement without the risk of injury. Many people think props like chairs, wooden bricks, and belts are only for beginners or those recovering from injury. In my experience, they are for everyone. When you use a chair to support your weight in a backbend, you aren't skipping the hard work; you are allowing your spine to lengthen fully without the fear of falling or straining. This is the foundation of how we practice in my studio in Rohini and my school in Rishikesh. My focus is on Hatha and Iyengar-style alignment. If your hamstrings are tight, we use a belt to help you hold your foot, which allows your back to stay straight while you fold forward. This ensures you target the specific muscles safely. If you suffer from sciatica or lower back pain, these props create the space your discs need to decompress. I personally perform hands-on adjustments because I need to feel your resistance and support your alignment. You will not be left to guess if you are doing it right. Whether you join my online sessions or my studio batches, the goal remains the same: safe, sustainable progress. We move step by step, listening to what your body tells us, so that with every session, you become stronger and more flexible. Bas karma karte raho—the results will follow. ## About Vyas Yoga Center Namaste, I am Yogacharya Diwakar Vyas.
