The details

Trust Your Back Again is a 6-week live course on Zoom to help you understand, release, strengthen, and calm your back, so you can move through your days with ease instead of bracing for the next twinge. The course is $550 plus HST.

    1. Learn how your spine, hips, and core actually work together, and why your back changes as the years go by. Once you see that your back is strong and built to move, "what if I hurt it again?" starts to loosen its grip.

    1. The most common patterns behind low back pain, and how to recognize which one is yours. When you understand what your back is guarding against, you stop guessing and stop avoiding the movements you love.

    1. Self-massage and gentle release for the muscles that grip: hips, glutes, the long muscles along your spine. Mornings get easier, stiffness fades, and bending to tie your shoes stops being a negotiation.

    1. Strengthening the deep core and glutes that are meant to support your spine. Lift, carry, garden, and get down on the floor and back up again, with a back that holds you up instead of holding you back

    1. Breath practices and nervous-system care so your body can stop bracing and start healing. You'll learn to notice when stress is settling into your back and how to help it let go, so ease becomes your normal.

    1. We bring it all together into a simple practice that's truly yours, plus a clear plan for flare-ups. You leave knowing exactly what to do on good days and hard ones, and caring for your back becomes second nature.

Your back isn't fragile. It's guarding.

Let's teach it to let go.

Your back has kept you from fully enjoying your life. Maybe you hesitate before lifting a suitcase, skip the long walk, sit out of the boardgame on the living-room floor. You've tried stretches from the internet, classes that felt good for an hour, maybe pills that took the edge off. The relief never lasted. Your back is not failing you, it's been working too hard to protect you. Some muscles are gripping, others have gone quiet, the joints have stiffened, and your nervous system has stayed on high alert. Address all four, and your back can finally stop guarding. Trust Your Back Again is designed to take you step by step through my method to leave you with a back you understand and a practice you know how to use for the rest of your life. Let's get you gardening, sleeping through the night, traveling to your favourite places, and going on those long walks again.

Simone Nitzan

For 20 years I've helped people find more freedom in their bodies. My academic background is in exercise physiology, so I understand precisely how your back works and why it hurts. But science alone has never been what heals people. What I do differently is bring the precision of Western movement science together with the depth of Eastern philosophy and true nervous-system care. I release the muscles that are tight, strengthen the ones that have gone sleepy, and bring mobility back into joints that have stiffened. And I create a space safe enough that your body can finally stop bracing and let go. Pain is not a sign that you've done something wrong. It's your body asking you to listen more carefully.

Who is this course for

  • You live with low back pain that's become part of your everyday life.

  • Maybe you can't always do the activities you want because your back bothers you, or you worry about how it will react.

  • You feel stress settle into your body and don't know how to let it go.

  • You're ready to take care of yourself, and you want a place to start that's realistic.

If your back feels fine right now but you're over 40 and want it to stay strong for the next 40 years, this course is for you. It's far easier to keep a healthy back strong than to rescue one that's already seized up.

Testimonials

“Last year, my back was in so much pain that I was waking up in pain, struggling to sleep soundly, and having trouble standing for long periods. I tried so many different yoga classes. Even when they felt good right afterward, the effects never lasted. Simone's class was the only one that felt like it truly targeted the underlying problem. The poses felt amazing during class, and the relief really lasted. I couldn't recommend it more!”

Joanna K.

“I limped for months with lower back pain that radiated down my left leg and had more or less accepted it. Simone figured out what was actually causing it, and within two days the limp was gone. It hasn't come back.”

Kenji B.

“I suffered from chronic back pain for years. Doing Simone yoga classes and yoga Nidra meditations has eliminated almost all of this pain. I now function normally without medication! It is so important to keep moving when you have chronic pain and yoga with Simone is one of te best movement practices you can do. I highly recommend Simone's classes. She is an incredible highly skilled healer! ”

FAQ

  • Do I need to be flexible or strong already?

    No. We start exactly where you are, and every practice has easier and harder options.

  • I have a diagnosed condition, like a herniated disc, sciatica, or arthritis. Is this for me?

    Yes. You'll learn to work safely around it and when to seek hands-on care. This supports your recovery; it doesn't replace medical treatment. If your pain is new, severe, or comes with numbness or weakness, please see your doctor first.

  • I took The Back Pain Reset. Will this repeat it?

    The free class gave you a starting point. Trust Your Back Again goes much deeper, with a full week each on understanding, release, strength, and your nervous system, plus a personal practice built for you.

  • What if I can't make a session live?

    Everything's recorded and yours for three years. And you won't miss out on getting your questions answered: email them to me before any session and I'll address them live on the call, so you can catch my answer in the recording.

  • What equipment do I need?

    A yoga mat, self-massage balls, a resistance band, two yoga blocks, two blankets, something to cover your eyes and a couple of firm pillows or a bolster. All inexpensive and useful well beyond the course. We'll tell you exactly what to buy.

  • What is the refund policy?

    All sales are final.
