We had a great start for our new series of classes at the Ray School yesterday. Everyone jumped right into the stream as we challenged ourselves with some vinyasanas from Sharon Gannon of Jivamukti yoga. Interestingly, Sharon's sequences require precise balance and this week Jane Brody's column in the NYtimes.com:"Preserving a Fundamental Sense:Balance" addresses the importance of balance. A quote:
"Remember, balance is a motor skill,.....To enhance it, you have to train your balance in the same way you would have to train your muscles for strength and your heart for aerobic capacity."
I'd say we had some good balance training yesterday. You can find the article online (you may have to go through a free registration process first). The article includes some simple balance exercises.
