In class today we look at the key actions of arm balancing! Along the way, we take a good amount of time to unpack uddiyana bandha (the belly lock) to support our attempts at taking flight. By the end of class, we try to put everything together in bakasana (crow pose).

Though we like to emphasize that these are not so much yoga basics classes (there are plenty of those around the city), as basic Kula style classes.
