Short but powerful stability training

Hahaha, I know that feeling. Thanks Trisha!

Oh, so glad to read this Lauren. And welcome back.

You go girl. For me it often feels like 2 hours?

Don't we all... ?

So glad, thank Annemarieke

What a great instinct Christine, to generate strength yourself when you need it. Sending you love and chi 💞

Back to this class again, after many months. Appreciate the gains in strength experienced in the tucked pelvis pose, I've been exploring how to inhabit poses and experiences with grace and ease, especially when they are most difficult and I've found a new depth here as I reflect on my past comment. Deeply appreciative for these practices with you, Anat!

Yes, because the abdominal muscles are so contracted, breath is different - not so deep, but shallow breath has also its place in practice. How very insightful Isabel. Thank you.

Yeah, right?

He's the best. Wishing you a great day too.

And you!

Thank you Neny, for you continuous support and enthusiasm ??

This touches me Michalea, as I know everything about being unhappy with my body. It never brought me any wisdom or growth, while learning to use it well has brought me only goodness. Thank you for sticking with it, this experience of change can be so profound. ??

I am glad you remember again!

It was the first time, you have a wonderful gift to share, so thank you for doing it so beautifully

Hi Abi, was it the first time we “met”? Thank youfor the kind words.

Thank you Tina.

Thanks Linda

Thank you Maggie, that is wonderful to hear 🙏🏼

What a lovely encouraging reply! Thank you! I will try...

Hi Dominique; all the other core exercises will help you build up strength. Maybe a very good and gentler option would be to do this same exercise but not go all the way down to the floor, just roll until say your first ribs are on the floor and then roll right back up again. Once that goes well you can add a centimeter every time. But don't worry too much about it, this exercise has also to do with mobility of the spine, and maybe this particular exercise doesn't work for you. Keep practicing ad your body will develop as it should. Thank you!

Likewise. I hold onto the back of my legs in going up or down in the first abs exercise, otherwise, I may injure my lower back. I also need to work more slowly. Will try not going down so far as Anat suggests. Thanks,

Yeah ??

Merci!

Thanks Anne, it was great fun - in a weird way.

Aha! Ab fab ;-)

Yeah, right? Thanks Eleanor.

Oh Suzanne, nothing major there, I guarantee! Thank you for this ??

Yay, thank you Valerie!

Hi Ashleigh, nice to meet you too 😉

I know...but repeating it makes it easier, really!

Wonderful. Thank you!

So glad to hear this, Rosa!
