Part 3/7:
Once the breathing practice concludes, Carolyn transitions to warm-up exercises designed to activate the core. Participants engage in a series of movements like slowly getting up without using their arms, emphasizing flexibility and strength within the core. As they move through poses such as Tadasana (Mountain Pose) and gentle side bends, Carolyn instructs them to engage their legs and glutes alongside the core, reinforcing the interconnectedness of these muscle groups.
The session includes movements that alternate between standing poses and twists, which challenge balance while emphasizing core engagement. The incorporation of dynamic poses allows for a gradual build-up to more strenuous activities while maintaining an emphasis on proper form and breathing.
