Rhythm bridges the gap between polarities, moving like a pendulum in a constant flow. It alternates through infinite cycles of expansion and contraction, radiance and concentration, much like the pulsation of a star, the ebb and flow of waves, the blooming and closing of a flower, the rise and fall of breath, or the beat and release of a heart. This class focuses on the progressive preparation for backbends, drawing inspiration from the constant pulse of everything between center and circumference, opening and closing, folding and unfolding. The goal is to perceive, through practice, our sphere of influence.
