Sweet Vinyasa 8:30am Wednesday

16 Peeps

Still focusing on balance through the internal Tadasana alignment.  This has been amazing to watch cuz even as we test new and difficult postures, everyone has the internal steadiness to check them in.  Today we blew the dust of standing revolving hand to big toe pose aka Parvritta Utthita Hasta Padangusthasana.  Not an easy one.  I taught it without using a strap, but many ignored me and grabbed one anyway.  Love this. And everyone totally stuck Urdhva Upavistha Konasana.  Amazing!
