Frog's Legs: Coordinating the Trunk and Hip

The lesson begins with explorations of folding and unfolding the legs by sliding the feet while lying on the back. Participants investigate how movements of the hip and leg relate to the contact of the lower back and the softening of the chest. The practice concludes by integrating these leg movements with gentle head lifts to coordinate the whole trunk.
