Ever wonder how the Downward Dog walks? Join us as we dive in to the wild world of animal movement! We will learn to move with fluid integration, open up space in the body, and flex our imaginations.

This class introduces the basic animal forms of Daoyin, the ancient Daoist movement practice that gave birth to tai chi, qi gong, and even Yin Yoga. We’ll hop and crawl through the five phases of water, wood, fire, earth, and metal.
Each week, we focus on a specific movement principle, like “hanging the spine” or “moving from the glutes.” We observe how this principle applies in different postures. And if all goes well, we’ll share a few laughs.
