Years ago I was drawn to the Pilates practice because of my interest in learning how to golf. As it so happens, a chance conversation with a fitness coach who  suggested I try Pilates. The practice helps to keep the body in balance and challenge stability and mobility all of which are needed in most sporting activities.

In preparing for an upcoming chakra energy series, I created a sequence to prepare the practitioner with an asana based practiced centered around movement of the spine. This is designed to help you understand where your awareness is regarding the health of your spine and better understand fluidity of movement.

Without a doubt my FAVORITE pose by far, something about this asana just feels so right, like my happy place when not on the beach. This pose never fails to surprise me, it never feels the same, there is no way to anticipate what is going to happen, and yes I fall out of it all the time! One of the few poses where my ego just lets go and the body and mind somehow pull this together.
