opportunity to check in with 132 00:06:30,940 --> 00:06:33,580 your body today whether it's looping the 133 00:06:33,580 --> 00:06:37,330 shoulders drawing some circles with the 134 00:06:37,330 --> 00:06:42,130 nose little neck hygiene here maybe you 135 00:06:42,130 --> 00:06:44,440 know pressing into the feet shaking out 136 00:06:44,440 --> 00:06:47,080 any leg cramps rolling through the 137

00:07:07,300 --> 00:07:08,740 back first again stacking the bones is 146 00:07:08,740 --> 00:07:10,900 so important because you know our 147 00:07:10,900 --> 00:07:12,790 habitual selves kind of want to take 148 00:07:12,790 --> 00:07:14,260 over especially when things begin to 149 00:07:14,260 --> 00:07:16,690 move at a faster pace as they do in 150 00:07:16,690 --> 00:07:18,670 vinyasa so the more attention to detail 151 00:07:18,670 --> 00:07:20,560 we have now while we're kind of going 152 00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:22,990 through the basics and really building 153 00:07:22,990 --> 00:07:25,420 the foundation of our practice the 154 00:07:25,420 --> 00:07:30,460 better so when you feel like you have a 155 00:07:30,460 --> 00:07:31,930 nice foundation really pressing through 156 00:07:31,930 --> 00:07:33,250 all four corners of the feet just go 157 00:07:33,250 --> 00:07:34,540 ahead and nice and easy reach the 158 00:07:34,540 --> 00:07:35,770 fingertips all the way up towards the 159 00:07:35,770 --> 00:07:38,830 sky and take a deep breath in and that's 160 00:07:38,830 --> 00:07:44,290 it exhale let it go and again full 161 00:07:44,290 --> 00:07:47,400 breath capacity inhale reach up reach 162 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:49,480 till you can't breathe in anymore 163 00:07:49,480 --> 00:07:52,690 and then exhale let it go 164 00:07:52,690 --> 00:07:56,500 a couple more try closing your eyes or 165 00:07:56,500 --> 00:07:57,790 just softening your gaze who's going 166 00:07:57,790 --> 00:08:00,220 inward focusing on the breath inhale 167 00:08:00,220 --> 00:08:05,500 exhale get used to really moving with 168 00:08:05,500 --> 00:08:11,200 your breath see if you can let the 169 00:08:11,200 --> 00:08:23,800 breath fuel the movement and after 170 00:08:23,800 --> 00:08:26,100 you've kind of found that like 171 00:08:26,100 --> 00:08:29,950 synchronization or at least tried we're 172 00:08:29,950 --> 00:08:34,360 going to add one more thing to this so 173 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:36,039 you can stay just kind of doing this 174 00:08:36,039 --> 00:08:38,260 flow here synchronizing the movement in 175 00:08:38,260 --> 00:08:39,789 the breath the breath in the movement or 176 00:08:39,789 --> 00:08:42,220 you can begin to lift up on the toes so 177 00:08:42,220 --> 00:08:43,780 we're practicing a little balance here - 178 00:08:43,780 --> 00:08:46,480 inhaling this also just requires this 179 00:08:46,480 --> 00:08:48,100 kind of slowed it down so we have more 180 00:08:48,100 --> 00:08:49,960 control over the breath and more control 181 00:08:49,960 --> 00:08:53,140 over the movement inhale exhale slowly 182 00:08:53,140 --> 00:08:58,390 release let's do one more 183 00:08:58,390 --> 00:09:04,660 spreading the fingertips and

00:09:29,680 --> 00:09:31,120 we're moving through water today not 193 00:09:31,120 --> 00:09:32,500 because we want to be weird but so that 194 00:09:32,500 --> 00:09:34,000 we can really just kind of stay in 195 00:09:34,000 --> 00:09:36,490 control the movement and of the breath 196 00:09:36,490 --> 00:09:38,440 also really great if you're beginner - 197 00:09:38,440 --> 00:09:40,330 just take
