7 - 6 - 19 Standing and Walking by Susan Koenig

This class starts with some simple somatic movements in standing. I modify Daily Cat Routine movements and add others to create these standing movements. Then we got on the floor and did some of the same movements as we did in standing. I always include movements that ask the spine to move in all six ranges of movement: flexion-extension, lateral and medial movement, rotational movement to each side. At the end of class, we stood back up and noticed our standing and walking and the differences we felt in our alignment, verticality, and ease of walking.
