Some of the questions we explore in this practice as we move through a varied, playful flow: What keeps my spine suspended and full of life? What early patterns of movement support freedom in back bending as an adult? How does the pattern of condensing and expanding manifest as our capacity to turn in and gather energy in order to find clarity in outward action? What are the role of our feet in extending our spine? Options to play with varied paces of motion, inversions and backbend variations with a long rest and some sound to finish.
