Marichyasana I: Strength and Stretch
This is the first of a series of two classes that lead you into a seated arm bind pose called marichyasana I (A), or pose dedicated to the sage marichi A. This class focuses on strengthening and stretching the key muscle groups that will prevent you from achieving the full pose if they are tight, such as the legs, back, hips and shoulders. The kind of rotation you need in the shoulder joint takes time to establish, so David devotes this class to beginning that release, so you are ready for the second class: Marichyasana II: Full Pose.

I came back tonight after an 4 week absence. Yoga just makes me feel better, great class. Love this website.
Awesome class and great guidence, thank you David. I felt so loose and flexible afterwards. Only one small annoyance was the low volume at certain points made following a little difficult. I always have volume full on but at times in this class it was hard to hear you. Other thank that, totally fab!
David,
Once again a big thank you for this great practice! I was able to really stretch my shoulders together in a way I hadn’t done in a while! The whole class was excellent and your pace and nuances made all the difference in making this such a mind body connection! Namaste Amigo! Luz
Absolutely awesome session! Can’t believe how small adjustments and muscle movements can alter the state of our bodies. You are so intuitive and clear in your instructions David. So glad I found you and this website!
