Cabin fever

Friday afternoon Mysore style Ashtanga: to Navasana+finishing sequence.
Saturday teach Yoga 1-2: Eased into practiice with chest/shoulder openers,some JM for ankles and wrists, then Utthita Trikonasana variations with chair. Focus on extending out through the crown of the head,creating length in the spine and rolling chest open. Create stable base with toes/feet/legs,etc. Finished with Vapariti Dandasana + counter pose (both w/chair) and on to resting asana of your choice. Legs on chair with sandbags a fav.

Hi Kate, are Slingshots the same as Standing Figure 8's?

Hi Howie-Slingshots are an around the body pass. No 8 in there. Pass the kb around the body one hand to the other.
