Exam Questions and CORRECT Answers
Yoga Sculpt Intro - CORRECT ANSWER - How's everyone doing?
My name is Tyler, and I will be guiding you through your 60 minute yoga sculpt class today.
If you haven't taken this class before, Yoga Sculpt is heated power yoga with weights.
It includes some yoga, some strength training, and some cardio. It's great!
So, let's get started in extended child's pose.
Extended Child's Pose - CORRECT ANSWER - Spread your knees wide
Bring your big toes to touch
Rest your forehead on the mat
Reach your arms out long in front of you
Sink your hips back towards your heels
Intro During Child's Pose - CORRECT ANSWER - Start to settle into this space and bring
your focus to your mat.
Leave behind any part of your day, your week, and become fully present here.
Take a deep Inhale through your nose
Open-mouth Exhale
In Yoga Sculpt, we use open mouth exhales to release heat from the body.
It will get pretty hot in here, so take breaks whenever you need because I offer few of them
during class.
When you do take breaks, come to a seat with your head over your heart to let your heart come
down.
Avoid returning to child's pose.
Then join us when you're ready.
,During class I will be offering some hands on adjustments and assists to guide proper alignment.
If you wish not to be touched, that's perfectly fine, just let me know now by waving a hand off of
your mat.
Thanks!
