And I've got this sitting on a am a medium to heavy seating, just as starting with a little warm up and then going into footwork. So I'm gonna just get into my position. Okay.

Oh, I'm feeling quite excited to meet my buddy after I traveled, probably 32 hours to get to Santa Barbara. Okay. South Africa is a long way. It's a good place to come from. And a good price to come to plot is anytime rocks. Thank you for joining me. Oh, so just take a deep inhale and I'm just going to take this moment to just reflect on this beautiful space and this view, feeling grateful.

Back home or feel my legs need to maybe come onto the foot bar for the rotation after this, but feel free to keep your legs up.

Feel free to keep the legs up. I'm going to place my feet for a bit of erased. Yeah. Moving into some rotation. Ah, just getting the spine to move in. All the different ranges. Okay.

I think as teachers we need the rotation more than anything was we constantly changing springs helping clients into positions. Two more and alright. Place the hills on the Ba. Let's do some foot back. Inhale. Exhale. Wow.

If you don't have an instructor guiding you through this, just hook the toys because yourself, give yourself an extra delicious stretch as Ashley says, and change around.

Sure. No tension in the shoulders. This is just your time. Be kind to yourself. Check in with your body all the time. All right. My royal up is my least favorite exercise in the whole manual, in all of the repertoire since the beginning in 2001 but because my legs were up, I dominated it. Okay.

I'm going to change my spring to Alaska resistance, going to do some ab dominoes and some hip work. So coming back up. Let's see if I can get that's right. And I kid you not, you can ask any of my instructors or my clients. The [inaudible] is not happening in this body, but I don't give up. I keep trying guys. Keep trying. Keep trying.

I'll try for Ava, right. Hands in the straps. Shoulders slightly away from the shoulder. Raced. [inaudible] I lifting the legs one at a time up off the bar. Uh, so I'm going to go into the sequence a little bit. Similar to what we did in the warmer, maintaining the flection in the chest, lifting the arms, bringing it back and lover down.

Two more and one and revise lengthening out of those hips.

So what you might or might not know is that Kristi was my teacher. Why back in 2001 and I remember doing the hip work with Christine Johannesburg all these years ago. Oh my goodness. And look where we are today. One more guys. I feel it is any time excel just into the openings. When Christie came to teach the basic course in Joburg, believe it or not, there was no internet people.

So we could not communicate the why we are communicating today. It was kind of like crazy and insane if you think about it. So she arrived, she taught us and she lived and one mall and hold it. Yeah. For a stretch. Ah. I enjoy the Stritch.

Do what you need to do. Maybe the niece needs to be paying to get into that hip joint. And I want to go into the short spine. One of my favorite exercises, Christy has my form. Can you even remember what his body looked like 18 years ago?

Oh my goodness. She saw the potential people fitting, Huh? He would have known. Sure. Ah, uh, feel so good on their hamstrings. On the spine. Okay.

And one more. So we all have our story. He need to go back and look at how bodies change. We see it with our clients, but do we actually respect and appreciate how our own bodies change? Mine certainly has hugely changed grateful every day. Thanks Joseph. Okay, so we're gonna move into some stretches.

Great Grace. If you are watching, I remember seeing this little sequence of yours on Instagram and loving it.
