Sweet Vinyasa 8:30am Wednesday

16 Peeps
1 Drop In

Felt good to be teaching again after resting on Saturday and Monday for my ear.  Again, I am finding myself teaching more technical.  "Like a guy."  The play seems to be to be clear and specific within the feminine holding space.

Putting together some of the toe work, leg line and belly work that Patricia shared a few weekends ago, we geeked out on rooting and moving from the core.  No real "peak" pose.  I think we will play with this for the next few classes and then come back towards the Vashistasana and Visvamitrasana play.
