Hanna Somatic Class #1: Exploring the Scapula (approx 75min)
Above class is a full length Hanna Somatic Education class which highlights the scapula as well as muscles of the chest and upper/mid back. You will need a comfortable place to lie down and, if you'd like, some pillows or folded blankets to support your neck and to place under your knees.
There is a portion of this class that is done whilst lying on the belly in prone position. If this position is not accessible for you for any reason, please do not force yourself into it! There is just as much benefit to lying on your back and imagining you are doing the movements OR you may do the movements whilst on your back - follow all my instructions in terms of positioning but instead of lifting your head, elbow or leg off the floor, you will press it gently INTO the floor. Please ask if you have questions about this alternative - I'm happy to help :)
