Bow Your Belly, Open Your Throat - Weekly Theme

In our Bowspring practice we open and lengthen our belly and throat rather than contracting and shortening them. We bow our belly and neck forward and up. Our waistline narrows and our neck tapers up toward the top of the head. When we do this we have more space in our belly for breath and fluids to move. With our throat open we are freer to sing and say what we need to say.

Fascia, or connective tissue, criss-cross across the belly. As the belly stretches forward toward the head its fibers narrow and cinch strong like a Chinese finger trap. Our bellies are long and strong.

Bow your belly and open your throat with us in class this week.
