Scanning Directions and Diagonal Connections

Listed by the publisher as “Scanning directions; lifting shoulders, hips, and head – kinesophics”

This lesson begins with a sensory scan identifying the body as six lines and a circle. Guided movements include lifting the head, shoulders, and hips while lying on the back to explore how these parts relate through the core. It concludes with seated variations that shorten the diagonal lines between the shoulders and opposite hips.
