This class will call forth your endurance through resistance work, flexibility through lateral movement, and will open your heart by focusing on your internal rhythm. Begin with an inspirational discussion of both the physical and emotional heart center, then move into dynamic floor exercises and kneeling variations. Continue with shoulder openers and progressive backbends that systematically clear tension and allow your heart to feel free. You’ll complete this practice with a final relaxation that integrates the wisdom of “strong heart, open heart.” Props needed: 2 blocks.
