C2 with Bryan

Class Count: 5, Other CP Classes Count: 2
Class: C2 (75 minutes) Instructor: Bryan
Location: Greenwood, Time/Date: 6pm, 2/3

This was such a fun, energizing flow! As always, Bryan greeted people with a warm smile. He told us we'd need a block and a strap and to head into studio 1. The heat and humidity were cranked up, which I love. 

Sun A incorporated some side twists and a standing backbend, which were both interesting elements and Sun B was a super creative flow. We moved from the front to the back of the mat and did some interesting transitions between side angle and triangle. After the salutations, we did a fun core sequence using the block and then jumped right back into the flow. It was a very physical/athletic practice and I was dripping with sweat by the time we made it to half pigeon. And after pigeon it was back to the flow for some pyramid pose action.

Bryan offered hands-on assistance primarily when people were attempting an arm balance (hurdlers) or headstand. Otherwise, he did a lot of demonstration and verbal cues. I really liked his encouragement to just "go for it" re: trying some of the more challenging poses. This class really incorporated some new-to-me-stuff; we used the strap for king pigeon, which was a great stretch.

The only drawback of the class for me was that I selected a spot next to the speaker and the music was pretty loud. This made it hard to hear Bryan and I had to look around a bit for visual cues as to where we were going.  Still, a minor critique of an overall awesome class!
