TUESDAY TRIVIA
I have more on the Dancer pose!
Yes, it's a standing and balancing posture, but it's also a strong backbend (which is why is can be uncomfortable if you don't get your alignment right!). To perform all these elements we need concentration, stability and poise, the very qualities this posture enhances. Yes we will wobble, yes we will get pushed off centre, yes it will require mental and physical effort, but we remain calm and steady. This posture is mirroring real life. The strength we build in the practice will transfer into our everyday life, helping us to adapt and go with the flow.
There's also another dimension to this but this works best when explored and practiced, so you'll have to come to class for this ;)
