The second class in the Commit To Courage series with Mariane Karou opens by dropping into balance and agility on a moving wave — feeling the living Earth beneath you and riding the energy that flows between the ground and your body. A shorter warm-up wave gives way to a longer practice that takes you through the full movement cycle: flowing through your lower body, opening the belly and solar plexus, reaching through your ribs and spine into your edges, and powering up with committed breath. The class invites you to use your mind rather than be used by it — staying inside the movement rather than watching yourself from the outside — and to meet challenge, feelings, and resistance with the steady willingness that is commitment.
