Summer is here!
Summer is here!
Did you know that June 20, 2020 was longest day of the year? On this day we have more minutes of sunlight than any other day of the year. We call this day the Summer Solstice.

This is stretching flow that will warm us up, like the sun can warm us. It will look like a dance when we flow from one move to another, especially when we add this groovy music. You can even create your own Sun Dance - go Freestyle!

PS. Sometimes I do my Sun Salutations outside on the grass or on the balcony, where I can actually feel the sun on my face!

I am using UPPER CASE letters.
There is NO right way or wrong way to do Alphabet Yoga! Just make a letter pose with your body, and hold it still and strong and balanced for five slow breaths. Breathe in and out.....
How many different ways can you make each letter? Now change levels... can you make each letter low, medium and high?
I would LOVE for you to send me a picture of YOU doing alphabet Yoga!
