For this class you need a bolster, blanket and blocks. We start off with stretches over the bolster to work on side body expansion. Next we do breathing work from the Postural Restoration Institute at the wall to practice 360 breathing and abdominal bracing that will be needed later in the yoga flow. From there we continue into standing poses and work on linking garudasana, warrior III and warrior 1 together. From there we work on headless headstand with the option of using blocks to support the upper back. This class was filmed live January 10, 2021.
Rotating the Pelvis in Different Orientations to Gravity
For this class it is helpful to start at the wall, you will need yoga blocks and a blanket for padding. Our hips are responsible for rotation, but when we don't utilize this movement we lose it.
In this class we work on gaining rotational movement in the pelvis in novel ways and different orientations to gravity. We then take this into our exploration of triangle pose and pyramid pose. This class was filmed live May 1, 2021.
