In this video, Sarah categorizes the spinal vertabrae into the lumbar (or lower back), the thoracic (mid/upper back) and cervical (neck). Homework: Where does the lat muscle insert? What kinds of movements recruit the lats?
In this lesson, Sarah defines 'the core' as all of the muscles the hug into midline. Homework: Do you agree with Sarah's definition of 'core'? If not, how would you define it, and why? Where is the QL muscle, and what does it do? Close your eyes, do a movement, can you feel it?
Everyone's talking about the Psoas! It's our physically deepest muscle, and is the only muscle that connects our spine to our legs. Homework: What does the psoas specifically connect to? What action does it create in the body? How does Sarah suggest to work with it, and why?
In this session, we examine some typical postural patterns, and offer options for different somatic ways of being. Homework: Ask a friend to stand relaxed as Dan did, and try to cue them into full body length.
