This practice is inspired by the drum lines and drill teams that are my favorite parts of a good parade. If you're having trouble motivating yourself to get moving or you just need to loosen up a little, cue up a good playlist and try "knocking on the door of life." In this practice, we draw from Tao Yin traditions and use tapping to stimulate circulation and encourage the flow of energy. Expect plenty of strengthening, too, with dynamic Chair and Tiger variations, as well as a Dancing Warrior flow and an option to balance in Half-Moon. Conclude with twists, hip-openers, and a reclined Cobbler's or Happy Baby pose. Then set yourself up to rest for as long as you're able.
