Come to my yoga classes at .sandgate (class timetable on the last slide). Here’s what to expect in July 👉🏾
This month our sequences will develop our balance - demanding deep presence from you.
Balance is a nervous system skill before it is a strength skill. It depends on three inputs working simultaneously:
👂🏽the vestibular system (inner ear, detects head movement)
👁️ vision
👣 proprioception (the body’s ability to sense its own position in space)
Part of our peripheral nervous system includes receptors in our joints, muscles, and connective tissue, which manage proprioception - especially in our ankles, knees, hips.
When these receptors are well-trained, they can fire micro-adjustments without conscious effort, enabling balance.
We’ll train this in class in single-leg poses, like Tree and Half Moon 🌓
We’ll meditate on Anahata, the energy centre that governs the upper torso; heart, lungs, thoracic spine, shoulders 🫀🫁
Through quiet stillness, we’ll reflect on how Anahata energy is flowing and manifesting in ourselves.
Feeling isolated or tense in the upper back? Let’s work on that.
Balance demands presence — you cannot balance while mentally somewhere else. Every wobble returns your awareness to the body, to now.
It’s okay to wobble, to flail. Let’s have fun with our bodies.
In yoga, we’ll practice contentment with what is, and accept our abilities.
