Shoulder Loving

Class starts with Viloma (against the Grain) pranayama in Constructive Relaxation Pose so that we can start from a space of observation, ease, and openness to what is needed energetically today. We get warm with core work, flow into Sun A, open into lunges, and begin to deepen shoulder stretching and activation. Lots of Gomukhasana Arm Variations! Kapinjalasana exploration! Flipping your dog into Wild Thing into Full Wheel! Fun times. After whipping ourselves up and opening chest and shoulders we simmer down with Gomukhasana legs before ending the same we started in Constructive Relaxation, the pose of ease. I encourage you to repeat Constructive Relaxation throughout the week during this busy holiday season.
