Session Description:

Our practice matures in many different ways. By focusing on simpler poses, we can develop more refined actions.

In this session, we will focus on the three actions of Maricyasana 1. Maricyasana 1 is considered one of the basic forward extensions. Maricyasana 1 is also a rotation (open twist)  and the beginning of body knotting as we bind our arms around one leg. Exploring each action of Maricyasana 1 and enhancing each movement will lead to a deeper understanding of the qualities of forward extension. Understanding the basic actions of the pose will lead us to a deeper and safer practice when attempting more advanced poses.
