Firefly Pose: Arm Strength
Note: Fiji says you need two blocks for this class, but you can also use two books of the same thickness. In part one of Fiji's 3-part series leading you to firefly pose (tittibhasana), she works on strengthening the arms. She emphasizes the muscles that are needed in this challenging arm balance to prepare you for the final peak pose, that you will be doing in part three. Fiji's focus, intelligent progression and clarity make this class wonderfully fulfilling and energizing. This class will get you where you need to be for the next ones in the series: Firefly Pose: Strengthen and Lengthen and Firefly Pose: Workshop.

Just started this challenge again, forgotten how inspiring and knowledgable Figi is. Great teacher, great way to start the morning.
2/15/18. Coming back to this one...thinking I may need to regularly incorporate it into my practice to continue to strengthen and stabilize my shoulder girdle. I consider myself pretty strong but this type of practice makes me question that belief!! Crisp, clear cues throughout and a nice balance between strength and ease. Thank you!
I have a significant amount of work to do after taking time off to heal an injury. This class was very challenging for me... I have done it 3 times this week; third time was easier than the first. The level of instruction on this website is very high. My own teachers set the bar very high during my YTT and yours is the only website I recommend to those who frequent my own classes. Thank you for doing what you do.
I attended my first public class yesterday, to start 2018. I was surprised and pleased at how well informed/prepared I have become with just at home practice. DYWM has taught me well. I had already decided to do a 30 day challenge, but with more room for growth. This is it. You are taking me through the first month of a new year.
Thanks for being here for us all. Happy New Year.
