Tonight we focused on two major root chakra areas of the body - the quads and the hips. We started with a pretty traditional flow of Surya A & B with plenty of options to balance on the hands and invert. Twists were encouraged to be initiated through the core and spine whilst maintaining a neutral pelvis. Lots of moments to be creative within the practice, as well as chats about the yoga rite of passage of face-planting. A pretty good balance of one-legged balancing poses as well as knee-down poses. Moving into the quads and the hips can be a bit confrontational, but you will feel lighter once you have gone through it. And we all agree that Pigeon in any of its forms is good stuff!
