focus on low back, hips, hamstrings, all lying or sitting on mat. Relaxing shivasana at end.
beginner+. includes balance poses. A little confusing in section that included triangle pose, but hopefully that will clear up.
very helpful
Excellent! includes ball rolling under foot while standing. Blocks for stretching mid foot. In sitting: Fingers between toes to stretch.
most of this is on stretching in lying, sitting. very helpful cues for use of block betwwen thighs, then at chest level, then on topof head, then overhead to better engage core. About 10 minutes on tadasana, downward facing dog, and warrior 1.
very challenging for me (6/27/2) . LOTS of improvement needed. She is good instructor, so worth going back to her.
beginner II. Slow flow. warms up spine in all directions, then does 2 balance poses . good for short, a.m. wakeup
salute in all directions. sun salute variation (includes prostration on mat). Moon salute (from star shape). salute to the gods and goddesses.
He says salutations are done at beginning of practice and done to honor something bigger than yourself (including, eg, an intention for another person)
Begin July 2/2020
Excellent teaching about alignment . Includes reverse table and a seated twist very challenging. 7/2/20
very good
focus mainly on flow from mountain pose to downward dog, low lung, high lunge, and warrior 2. very little stretching other than these poses. good review of warrior 2.
would be good to practice this regularly
All done in lying or sitting. Included focus on activation of psoas, and builds to BOAT pose, using a block to help activate psoas and core.
12 second breaths with 6 second retentions = very challenging. another worthwhile breathing exercise.
