1h 1m
A practice inspired by summer but good anytime you’d like to reset and energize. We begin with constructive rest, aimed to reset the deep postural muscles throughout the body, and follow with alternate nostril breath, a pranayama form to balance the body and down regulate. During warm-up, we explore how the arms and shoulders move via the collarbone and shoulder blades. Movement sequence focus is on energizing and engaging proper muscular support for the poses, which include: high lunge, one-legged plank and down dog, wide leg forward fold, side angle, revolved stork, and hip openers. We briefly focus on the cross patterning required for walking and stairs as well.
