Carmen Hutt Movement

She took her initial ashtanga yoga teacher training (200 hr) with Brian Cooper in Edinburgh, Scotland, then spent long periods of time in India with Lino Miele ( Italy) and Rolf and Marcy Naukojat ( Goa). She has also completed week l

I have edited this LONG reel three times and been booted out of Instagram everytime. So alas it is still long…

This is a great little sequence to move into a teaser and to develop some flow !

Putting together some combos for mixed equipment class . Super fun !🤩

The combo of arms and legs really helps to make stronger connections through the torso !

More programming using the ball🔮this week. Doing midback work here .

🔮place small ball under your pelvis. find the ‘sweet spot’- not under your lumbar curve or too far towards your tailbone . Just under the sacrum .

🔮put the spring tension down . I usually do 2 reds for midback but went down to a red and blue . Adds more@instability .

🔮anchor through your centre . Start small. Maybe just legs movements with stability with arms down along side of carriage . Once mastered add the hands in straps . Work slowly . Add more moving parts once you feel solid .

🔮the ball adds so much here . Greater awareness , concentration and definately connection from the centre .

Ps this is sped up x’s 2.

When teaching I always add a mat component no matter the piece of equipment we are using . This week we are using a small ball in my programming and it can definately 💡 things up !

With this roll up and twists I like that it gives a sense of focus and can also be helpful
getting the connection from shoulder to hip ., especially with the twists .

Watch for more tomorrow !

The key to these few exercises is to push hand and leg into opposition . Spine doesn’t move .

Your centre will fire up and the PF will work too !

Then add some movement to that other leg . Marching , leg slides . Keep the opposition !

Love this one ! And can come back to the sensation throughout your practice !

Class movements for the upper body on repeat the past few weeks - even doing sets .

Pushing and pulling . Think carrying heavy objects , lifting things overhead , slamming and opening doors , paddling and swimming in the ocean .

Getting stronger helps make all these movements feel way more efficient and better !
