Personal Practice Day 19

Today's practice was in Sanieh's Friday Noon class at Yoga Yoga.

I've learned that a great way to open up the shoulders is to be in Warrior I, fold forward and interlace the fingers. A good thing to do before shoulder balancing postures.

We went into Urdhva Dhanurasana. She offered a pretty advanced and technical flow that went from a one handed purvottanasana, pivoting the foot and landing the other hand down into urdhva dhanurasana, then lifting the other hand and pivoting the other foot to go into the other hand's purvottanasana.

It was hard, so I wasn't able to flow. I just did the one sided purvottanasana, which was a very nice stretch!
