In this workshop, we’ll explore backbends not only as physical shapes, but as an invitation to move beyond what feels like your current limit - in the body and within.

Backbends can ask for strength, openness and trust. They bring us to an edge where we often hesitate - and offer the opportunity to meet that edge with awareness, breath, and curiosity.

With over 10 years of teaching experience and a deep personal practice, Michèle will guide you through a thoughtful progression of preparation, exploration, and integration. Her approach is shaped not only by technical understanding, but by years of holding spaces where people can safely explore, feel and grow.

This workshop is an invitation to:

• build strength and understanding for your backbends

• explore your personal edge in a supportive environment

• experience a sense of opening and expansion beyond what you might expect

You don’t need to have “advanced” backbends. What matters is your willingness to explore.

Come as you are and discover what becomes possible when you move just beyond what you thought was your limit.

MICHÈLE MELZER has been teaching since 2016, following her 200-hour Vinyasa Krama training in Basel, and later deepened her studies with additional training in anatomy, alignment, and adjustments. Her classes are dynamic and grounding, with a focus on creating space for both movement and stillness—especially in Savasana, where she believes the deeper integration of practice unfolds.

Alongside yoga, Michèle integrates her interest in meditation, Reiki, and Inka shamanism, offering a holistic approach that invites students to reconnect with their own sense of balance, intuition, and inner clarity.
