Hi All.
First a commercial announcement.
We have arranged for a special discount for any of you who wish to take Tom Myers' workshops "The Anatomy of Inversion – Friday-Saturday, February 23-24" or the Part II: Neck, Shoulders, & Thorax: The Soft Tissue Approach - February 25-26. The Advanced Studies discount is $275 for either workshop (regular price is $325.)
Your class stubs can be used for 15 hours per each workshop (30 stubs for all 4 days). The remainder ($110.00 ) of the fee can be paid directly to The Breathing Project. All hours spent studying with Tom Myers are applicable to our 100 or 200 hour certificate.
Needless to say, I highly recommend Tom's work. He is truly one of the top educators of the human body on the planet, and we are very fortunate to be his "home base" in NYC.
Also, here's a link to Matt Taylor's excellent Yoga Therapy intake form:

Homework:
In addition to last weeks' assignment (see below) I'd like you to also try your hand at a flexion/extension haiku. Here's mine:
Exhale rounds my spine,
Inhaling lifts me open.
Flexion, extension.
(Last week)
Please BRIEFLY (just a few sentences each) define:
Forward bending
Backward bending
Spinal flexion
Spinal extension
Also, give at least three examples of how we can observe the qualities of sthiram/sukham in the structure/function of the spine.
I look forward to seeing you next week, when we will examine the degrees of spinal range of motion in axial rotation (twisting) and lateral flexion.
Leslie
