Hatha: Room to Move
An unhurried practice of lunges, standing poses and floor work, with a quiet finish.
Start with small movements through the spine. As you come up to standing, keep the stance comfortable and give each side the same attention. The floor work brings the pace back down; your final rest is part of the practice.
