Reaching Around the Clock
The lesson begins with a full-body scan on the back before moving to the side. Participants imagine themselves on a large clock face, sliding the top hand and rolling the pelvis toward various numbers to explore how the spine and ribs support reaching. The movements culminate in a full circle, clarifying the connection between the limbs and the torso.
