This class seems to work everything, with an emphasis on the hips and lower back/hamstrings. includes a lot of strength/balance poses, including a few variations of "crow pose" including a "sideways crow". there is an interesting "warrior 1" lunge to "eagle pose" and back to lunge. we also did a variation of "camel" that is worth checking out. "plow" and "shoulder stand" towards the end and a twist to finish up. if you hear a bull horn on and off for about 10 minutes in the middle of class, don’t worry, it’s just the fire station next door to our class, apparently testing the horns on their trucks. a true test of focus. don’t worry, it probably didn’t come thru on the recording. enjoy.

Tonight we start out easily enough with moderately paced sun salutations, but about halfway through we start to work on inversions- headstands and that elbow stand thing that I cant remember the name of. It might help to do this class close to a wall for support. After that, we focus on hip openers- one of my personal favorites.

We started off with sun salutations A and B with some variations to warm up the hips, like lifting your leg while in down dog and some stuff to get you good and warmed up like holding plank pose. We somehow managed to work our way into "flipping our dog" or "rock star pose". I remember a pretty hard one legged balance series, that felt rather graceful if you pulled it off. There was a "crouching tiger" and a "crow pose" sequence and an interesting"eagle pose". We did some good ab work and there were some "camel poses" and finished off with a nice twist while lying on the floor. And of course finished with the most important pose, "corpse". I’d rate the difficultly as hard, everyone looked like they were sweating a lot.

Today Wade called in sick… the first time in around 4 years (at least that I can remember). We should be back up and running on Tuesday.

The class starts out with the normal sun salutations A and B, but with modifications and detours throughout. Creating heat and staying challenged comes easy. The difficulty of the class peaks with a long one legged balance series, moving from Warrior 1 to Airplane to Triangle with lots of other poses in between. There are some nice lower back stretches like Crouching Tiger and one where you crouch/sit back on your calves and squeeze your ribs with your thighs. There is some pretty good ab work too, but it felt like we were doing ab work throughout the whole class as well. A nice moderately difficult class to start the year off with.
