Connecting the Arms and Shoulders to the Body

Listed by the publisher as “The Arms The Shoulders The Body”

The lesson begins with a standing observation of weight and ease before moving to the floor. Participants explore arm rotations, elbow bending at various angles, and sliding movements while lying on the side. These explorations integrate the shoulders and rib cage, leading to a full-body investigation of how arm movements initiate shifts in the pelvis and legs.
