A Ride the Wave class with Tierra Karou built around the spine as the central channel of intelligence and renewal. You begin by planting an intention and letting it settle into the body, then drop your attention into the vertebrae, tissues, and nerves of the spine — each moment of feeling there opens a vortex of energy. As breath feeds the spine and the wave builds outward through hips, elbows, hands, and sound, the class moves from expansion and reach into deep muscular engagement: squeezing, pressing, and juicing every last reserve of power before letting that energy ripple freely through the whole body.
The final leg weaves sounds and dance into the practice, using different pitches and mouth shapes to open new brain pathways. The theme throughout is resilience — not the absence of distraction, but how quickly you can bring yourself back to your body, again and again, without judgment.
