In this miscellaneous class for level 3 students, we will look at some of the more foundational poses — we will especially focus on standing postures — and observe how modifying them changes the way we experience what’s happening in our bodies.
The modifications will be achieved with the help of props, like the wall or a chair, or by changing the configuration of the pose: the position of the hands, the distance between the feet, and the angle at which we bend.
Some of the modifications will be quite subtle and our goal today is to see how even the smallest changes in the pose can alter the way we experience it. Paying attention to these details will help us understand our bodies and the actions we engage in better.
