Attention, inflexible people. Amy Bockmon has something to say to you: “Who cares if you can’t put your foot behind your head? I can’t put my foot behind my head. I don’t care. It doesn’t bother me. It won’t stop me from doing anything.”
In fact, she said, there’s really no reason to ever need to bend into a pretzel.
Bockmon, 33, teaches a course called Safe Yoga for Round Bodies. The class, held at ClearSpring Yoga on North Market Street, is designed for people who are overweight or who have negative body images.
“My own story begins in this way, which is why I feel compelled to teach this particular class,” Bockmon wrote in an email.
