Class starts low to the ground breathing the spine open. Slow. Slinky. Primordial. Sphinx. Mermaid. Lions breath in Lizard Pose. As heat builds we strengthen the back and build range of motion in our backbends. Sun Salutations increase heat and we return to glutes and abs before building into more dynamic posture flows: twist, hip extension, extended side angle!, lizard with quad stretch and a head rest!. Ankle and Sacral mobility progress together taking us into Camel Pose. Peak moment is Prone Back Strengthening we will feel for days. We carry this scaffolding of back strength with us into an active exploration of drop back to full wheel at the wall.
