Playing With Your Toes
$3.99 View DetailsBabies are constantly interacting with their toes, delighting in making new connections with themselves. Once we start walking, our toes are often neglected, forgotten and even smashed into strange shapes by our shoes. They hide there until bunions, hammer toes and other indignities appear. This lesson not only reacquaints you with your amazing toes, but can change how you walk and even how you fit in your shoes!

Connecting Ankles and Pelvis in Turning

Get Into the Swing!
$3.99 View DetailsSo often when I ask people to sit up, they "pop up" straining in the neck or haul themselves up, grunting at the effort. We often teach people how to sit up following the path of least resistance, rolling to the side and easing up. This lesson explores another way to soften the back and chest to effortlessly "swing" up - a bit of elegance, a bit of momentum and voila! Don't worry if it doesn't bring you to sitting, or you don't want to "swing." Just the gentle movements of connecting head, neck and shoulders to the arms and legs is delightful in itself.

Cat, Cow, Fish and More

And if you love yoga, this will definitely enhance your practice.

Your head is connected to your feet

Lengthen your arms with your feet
$3.99 View DetailsWe don't often think about our arms being connected to our feet, although of course, for every step you take, your arms participate by swinging. In some ways, the arm begins in the opposite hip, the diagonal complex of muscles giving power across the back. Your feet however, also transfer power through your spine to your shoulders and ultimately your arms. This lesson helps make all these connections as you explore movement in different orientations that not just lengthen your arms, but your spine as well.
