Monday

Pre-natal Yoga

Key Principle:

Releasing spinal tension ceates more space for both you and your baby.

Tuesday & Wednesday

Forward Bends

Key Principle: Forward Bends cultivate an attitude of yogic surrender.

Skill in Action
Building on the principles of inner support that we learned with Standing poses we begin introducing more dynmaic forward bends, such as the infamous Downward Facing Dog. Amazingly, as students integrate the use of their arm and leg strength, their abdominal muscles and their ability to settle into the support of their bones these “strenuous” poses not only become easy, they become deliciously comfortable and restful. The whole body opens effortlessly with a sumptuous lengthening.

This is Skill in Action.

Thursday

Upper Spine Release

Key Principle: Open your whole spine and your arms and legs become stronger.

Skill in Action
Normally we use our back muscles for everything, sort of dragging our heavy limbs along with us. When we open the spine our arms and legs naturally become stronger and more effective. Be can begin to rely on the natural dynamics of our bodies’ physical strength, allowing our core to stay open and flexible. This is Skill in Action.

Saturday

Safe Backbends

Key Principle: Opening the body in a different direction changes everything.

Skill in Action
Backbends deepen the opening in the spine and create greater flexibility throughout the whole body. We can begin to move and bend in new directions. We uncurl our Selves and literally open up to the world, allowing for greater awareness and perception. Our reflexes become quicker and more decisive. We respond to the world more wisely.

This is Skill in Action.
