arm balances
we were learning to fly
though we ain't got wings
and coming down
was the hardest thing!
... to paraphrase the great tom petty! yesterday, i led a workshop focusing on arm balances. a request was made for me to show each we learned - presumably so everyone can practice at home (?) 
here they are! enjoy!

i want you to know, i think it was payback! the request came at the end of the workshop for all the pictures ... and then they impishly asked that i hold each one for a series of 360 degree photos. haha! oy!
