3h 12m
Education Director Kate Heffernan goes over a quiz covering content learned in the Sun A/B session and the standing pose sessions. After discussing the quiz, Kate moves into a practice focusing on mobilizing the body into backbends with the arms at the shoulder, moving into extension. The asana practice will highlight this family group of postures and break down alignment with use of props and modifications. Kate will continue teaching the use of oppositional actions in cues and utilize the method of intentional sequencing to a peak posture.
