Relaxation - Flexibility

After any training, it takes some time to assimilate and integrate potential new ideas into the classroom.

As most of you know, I just returned from 5 days with Rod Stryker -- read all about it on the main blog.

Already we're experimenting with some of the Viniyoga techniques that Rod uses, such as more dynamic movements to build strength, flexibility, muscle memory, and circulation.

Based on most current student's interest in "flexibility and relaxation", this week we'll focus on forward bends and a fluid dharana (concentration which can lead to meditation or dhyana). Based on folks abilities, we'll use variations of Marichi I and Marichi II.

A hand mudra, called the Buddhi Mudra, will be used during the meditation to enhance the fluidity of our bodies.

See you all next week,
