Freeform Dolphin

Free your dolphin and awaken your heart! Awakening the shoulders is a main pastime for yogis, particularly men. For women building upper body strength is part of the awakening process. Breathing and subtly liquifying dolphin pose with freeform movement can allow energy blockages and static contraction to dissolve. It matters not if you kick up into pinca myurasana, forearm balance, but if you do the weight will change dramatically. In the full inversion you want to have subtle upper body movements so that you can remain stabilized in the shoulder girdle. However, you can continue to feel the movement of energy and freeform through the legs and play with variations like scorpion. Come down when you are still very energized, and bookend the practice with down dog so that the energy can move past your elbows and ground.  Enjoy the new buzzing and heart chakra opening from this freeform practice!
