There are many variations out there, we will use a lunging variation that is accessible at many levels. There will be modifications for various levels including those who can’t lunge or get on the floor.We will then learn about the “map” we are using to understand these connections. This map, developed by renowned manual therapist Tom Myers in dissection research, will help us use our arms effectively. Next we will do the Sun Salutation again, layering what we learned about the arm lines onto the practice.The assignments are just a series of questions to help you assess your personal progress in the work.After a brief wrap-up, I’ve included a short, but complete yoga practice. This 45 minute practice will help you feel the work in a session that goes beyond Sun Salutations. Feel free to do the last video, first. Then go through the course and do the class again to experience the changes.Who this course is for:All levels of yoga practitioners should benefit from the information in this courseBeginners will start this practice with the right tools for successIntermediate students may break through to the next level with these conceptsAdvanced students may intuitively do this already, but they may also be experiencing pain or feel like they are causing damage.
