November 20, 2010 Finding Balance and Stability – Warrior and Balance Poses
Stability, or rooting through the legs, and balance go hand in hand. To find balance without effort, we must understand how to open our hips and use our legs to connect to the earth, allowing the torso and spine to release upward and be free. In this class we will juxtapose warrior poses with balance poses to explore the relationship between earth and sky, and rooting and expanding.
December 4, 2010 Letting Go… Into Forward Bending
Forward bending is about deeply folding in the hips. It is a practice of letting go and allowing the entire back and spine to open and lengthen. This also includes releasing from the spine through the back of the legs and into the arms. It is a total body release. Through breath and awareness, we are invited to go more deeply into our internal environment: softening the muscles, opening the joints, and quieting the mind. This asana relaxes the back, supports kidney function, and opens the hips. It is soothing, calming, and revitalizing. A great preparation as we move into the busy holiday season.
