Sweet Vinyasa Yoga, Monday @ 8:30am

Title: Rise from the Mud
Teaser: We play with the elements of the chakras towards Urdhva Dhanurasana.

Seq: We use Tadasana to practice grounding and opening to the earth.  We use a lunge sequence to open the thighs and shoulders for wheel pose.

28 peeps

3 Drop ins

28 is pretty crowded for Lulu's.  So many friends showed up.  Uschi was there.  Aaron was there.  And many others.  We played with Swamp Monster and Hallelujah Arms towards Urdhva Dhanurasana (UD).  The talking points played with the Kapha Earth and Water elements of Spring creating the Swamp Monster and giving rise to the Lotus of Heart.  Shared some of what I am learning in Ravi's course on the Gospels.
