Vinyasa Basics 9.22.09

Some days teaching basics is a challenge because I just want to get to the 'ahhhhh'. I sometimes tend to skimp on the 'effort' of the pose and favor the 'ease'. I feel my teaching was a little uneven today. 

Inspired by my new experience playing with 'heavy' hands in my own practice and continued fascination with breath. Fun series and several new faces this morning. Teaching at Lulu's is so cool.

After I wrote this I see that 'sliding' easy side plank might be useful to play with next time.
