Friday May 13th class

[Lisa Walford]

Everyone.. my Friday classes are generally targeted, almost workshop like. I decided to teach like this as most of you take regular classes and rarely get to focus on a specific area for the whole class and hence may not go deep to enhance understanding and build muscle memory. However, tomorrow, Friday, I will teach what I consider a well balanced "what can I do as a daily balanced practice" class. Here is what the sequence will roughly be, call it a rough draft. I might change some things, but this is it! If you do not know the names of these poses, well, time to learn!
