Spine and the Levers of the Arms

Listed by the publisher as “Using the Spine to Lower the Levers of the Arms”

Participants lie on their back with knees bent and arms outstretched at 90-degree angles. The lesson guides movements of rotating the forearms toward and away from the floor while coordinating with movements of the head, pelvis, and knees. These complex variations involve interlacing fingers and differentiating eye movements to explore spinal and shoulder mobility.
