Open-sky: Aligning with gratitude
Fourteen yogis gathered in a muddy Lincoln Park to align the spine and express gratitude. We treated the spine as one unit – being mindful of the movements of the neck in relation to the rest of the back. And we expressed gratitude for our practice (in its eighth week) together. Namaste.
Open-sky: Back-bending observations
In Friday’s class we talked about the importance of giving ourselves space – observing rather than reacting and judging. A dozen of us expressed this notion through heart openers and back bends – allowing ourselves to be vulnerable and brave at the same time. Namasté.
Little yogis at Open-Sky
Last week we had 19 adult yoginis and five teeny yogis twisting in utkatasana and lengthening in peaceful warrior while surrounded by traffic noise and ten-year old soccer players (turned out part of Watkins had moved their field-day to Lincoln Park!).

Appropriately – with the tiny group – we did a reading from “Less – Accomplishing More by Doing less” by Marc Lesser about being “complete/perfect just […]
Another open-sky community class
