This class explores one of the most subtle and transformative ideas in movement — that alignment is not something you force, but something you find.
Most of us have been taught to think about posture from the outside: stand up straight, pull your shoulders back, tuck your chin. But real alignment, the kind that actually stacks the bones well, creates space in the body, and lets the deep stabilizers show up and do their job, comes from within. It comes from connection, not correction.
In this class we work with energy lines, lines of awareness and intention that run through the body and help guide the bones into better relationship with each other. When these lines are felt rather than forced, something shifts. The deep stabilizers, the quiet muscles that are designed to support you from the inside out, begin to activate not because you told them to, but because the body is finally in a position where they can. Length appears. Space opens. The body stops gripping and starts supporting.
This is an inward practice first. It is from that inward connection, that sense of being gathered and grounded from deep within, that we are then able to expand outward. Connection before expression. Stability before movement.
What you discover in this class is meant to travel with you. These energy lines are something to play with and apply throughout your day, in stillness, in the quiet moments of daily life, and in active movement. In a yoga class, a strength session, a walk. Finding these lines in both the soft moments and the demanding ones is how alignment stops being something you think about and becomes something you live in.
No props are needed for this class.
This class teaches you to find alignment from the inside, awakening the deep stabilizers, creating length and space in the body, and building the inward connection that supports everything you do.
