Wednesday Yoga (9/12) ~ Backbends - Embracing Change Pt. 4/4

To continue with the chest and shoulder openers of last week, we will be focusing on backbends this week. This is will be the last of a four part series of "breaking routine" and embracing change. As you already know, the entire class will not be comprised of backbends, but with several poses sprinkled throughout our practice.

Towards the end of our practice, we will continue with the 10-15 mins. salutations again, and this will conclude the 4 part series, concluding in a full hour of just salutations. For those of you who loved that sequence, then you'll be excited to see it back, but for those are have had enough of it, it will soon be over.

Please let me know what your thoughts are on the sequences lately. Are you itchin' to get the wave sequences back? Let me know! See you tomorrow!

See my comments for tonight's class below... and feel free to add yours as well...

Tonight concludes our final part of a four part series of "Breaking Routine and Embracing Change". I hope that throughout the past four weeks of practice that we learn to be open-minded to changes and try not to anticipate so much of the change, but rather let it happen in the present moment and let it guide you through without judgment. In the end, (not to get all philosophy and cheesy on you), but I hope that this practice and mentality teaches us to not be so worried about the future, but to accept the present moment and learn to "go with the flow" as a vinyasa yoga teacher would say.

Next week, to conclude our four part series, I hope to do a restorative practice. During this practice, what I hope you learn from it is how far along you've advanced physically and mentally in yoga. In addition, it will be a great way to rejuvenate the mind and body after so much sweat and effort we put into our practice week after week.

So I'm up for suggestions for next week's class! Feel free to send me an e-mail on your thoughts about class, and try to be specific if possible, because it will definitely help me with the planning in the future.

Thanks again for coming out and joining me over yoga! It's so nice to see familiar faces every week! Enjoy the rest of your week, and hopefully, this Sunday's weather will play out. Check back for updates!
