Balance: practice balancing poses, seated, standing, knees, belly; discussion of technique of balancing and benefits.
Lesson Outline
Topic today was balance: poses, purpose, techniques. We practiced balancing poses on knees, seated and standing. We discussed focus and practice. I also taught Anna and Quinn a couple of "partner yoga" positions they could do together. I stressed safety and gentle assistance. We ended class with a little free play and a relaxation time with music and lavender lotion. They were able to calm themselves and become still and quiet after a bit.
