"Beginner's Mind" Class

I remember when I first started yoga and everything was a revelation... the poses and the challenge of staying present, the parts of my body that I never knew existed coming to the forefront, the joy of a newfound ease.  

Try this sequence to gain better awareness of sensation and the interconnectedness of your body's systems... just as you did when you started yoga.  

If you are new to yoga, use this sequence as an opportunity to dive in on your own, maybe even starting a home practice.  If you don't know the pose, just ask or google it.  Little known fact: many yoga teachers practice with books, notes and laptops strewn around their mat precisely for looking things up in the middle of practice :-)
