This full-body exercise is rooted in core strength, postural alignment, and balance, and I began to take this knowledge of healthy body mechanics back into my life. Rolling my shoulders down, engaging my core muscles, and focusing on my breath were simple things that I could do to take care of myself while also helping my students.”
