Today is led by John. John talked about more systematicly about arm balancing. Tho we did yesterday, but maybe there are too much to cover, so we didn't go thro how to get into poses. Arm balancing is always not easy for women, but once you get it, it would enpower you a lot! 可以有出去砍人的氣勢....
＊pranayama practice: first we do kabalabati. and Nadi Shodana at the end of the practice. This time John guided through, I think it's better for ppl to understand.
＊Asana practice: Prep for arm balancing, hip opening and abd work are still key. Began with sun salutation Lots of launge poses, Parsvokonasana,launge with elbows on the floor hip opener, needle eyes pose, baby cradle, pigeon pose, malasana. Abs work, with block between thighs, dolphin pose for core power.
* Arm balancing pose: crow, Eka Hasta Bhujasana, Astavakrasana
John is really good guiding ppl into pose, also provide many variations, good for teaching!

你都是用「收下巴」來調整頸椎或頭的位置嗎？ 在瑜伽課或是健身時也常聽到的「收下巴」這個引導, 老師或教練的用意應該就是把頭帶回來順位, 但是這個指令是有效的嗎？ 瑜珈界的 #喉鎖 及 #喉輪 喉嚨的位置是頭顱和頸椎的交界點, 在瑜伽裡有所謂的喉鎖(Jalandhara Ba... -
