Mastering Simplicity Class #05: Feet First
$30.00
The Mastering Simplicity sessions reflect how yoga was once taught, with teacher and student meeting each other with openness and inquisitiveness about what might arise. Because Donna wishes to teach from what is most current within her practice, there won’t be a detailed description of each monthly class until after it has been recorded. This is deliberate so that she can create each class as she explores what she is most interested in, in the weeks prior to each class. This is an invitation to explore and discover new experiences from often familiar practices.
The classes are offered monthly and will consist of a 2-hour livestream class. 1.5 hours of guided practice followed by 30 minutes for questions, reflections, and community connection.
This class was recorded in June 2024.
Recordings will be available for 30 days after purchase, unless you choose to subscribe. Subscriptions offer greater benefits, particularly for teachers, which you can learn more about here.
See the description of this class below for more details.
Offer up every joy,
be awake at all moments to the news
that is always arriving
out of silence.
~ Rainer Maria Rilke
Physical Focus: Releasing the feet, using the feet in standing postures
What’s Inside: This class could be considered “Part Two” to Class #4. We shift our focus from the ball of the foot to the front of the foot and ankle. The class begins on the floor with a series of seated postures that extend and open the front of the foot and leg. We progress to a standing warm-up sequence followed by standing postures with the emphasis on initiating each posture from the yield and push of the foot.
Key Focus: Through keeping our feet healthy we can initiate a kinetic chain of force from the feet to the legs, pelvis and spine and utilize this in all our everyday activities.
