126: Loving Kindness + Active Backbends (Practice with Francesca!)

Well, this is an unusual episode!! Since I released a podcast episode last year about my group class planning process I’ve been getting more and more questions about my unique teaching style.  It’s been described as Buddha Dharma Meets Corrective Exercise With A Little Vinyasa In The Middle For Some Fun. It’s a specific style that has been cultivated over almost 20 years of very full-time teaching, and I especially love the way it lands online and in an audio format. 

So this episode is a short explanation, and then a full-length practice! You might find it interesting to listen to even if you can’t or don’t want to do the physical part of the practice.
