This lesson explores the relationship between the arms, shoulders, and spine. Participants begin lying on the back to observe their contact with the floor, then sit and lie down while crossing and sliding their forearms in various directions. The practice emphasizes noticing how the shoulder blades, ribs, and pelvis participate in arm movements.
