Advanced Class 6: Expanding through the Chest and Collarbones

In this standing pose class we will be taking a closer look at some standing poses, especially Utthita Trikonasana, and practicing creating space through the chest, collarbones, and buttocks. The idea is to be able to both go deeper into a pose and expand the chest so as to let the breath move more freely. The second part of the class will include some sitting poses and forward bends. Here, we get a chance to see how contact with the floor can help us achieve deeper bends.
