A Ride the Wave class with Tierra Karou that opens with an unexpected starting point — the hands and fingers — to unlock heart wisdom and set energy rippling through the whole body before settling into the main focus: the rib cage as the seat of the solar plexus. You bring your breath into the ribs from front and back, learning to use your hands as a container so that stored feelings can digest and become fuel rather than holding you back. From the ribs the practice roots down into the legs and feet, trees you into the earth, and then squeezes and engages the whole body to generate the endorphins and vital energy you need for your day. The class ends in free dance to let all that juice flow.
