Vinyasa Basics 9.17.09

About the breath, keeping the heart open, and grace. Poses were a place to practice that instead of the other way around.

I was going to do Warrior I to Warrior III in standing poses but went into side angle instead of Warrior I, so just made up a sequence on the spot. Think Warrior II would have been useful to add, in retrospect, before the twist. 

I am enjoying teaching a basic BASIC class. It helps me to root into my own practice deeper.
