Review……………………………………………………………………………………..
Muscles of scapular stabilization:

Upper traps: Elevated the scapula, also causes upward rotation (agonist)
Middle traps: Contracts, abducts shoulders
Lower traps: Stretching (antagonist) Causes depression of scapula
Levator: Elevation (powerful due to their location
Serratus: Connects to ribs and underside of shoulder and protracts, (pulling forward)
Rhomboid: Deeper then traps, powerful retractors and abductors.
Muscles of Musculotendinous cuff/Muscles that are part of shoulder socket:
S-Supraspinatus: Assists with abduction of arm
I-Infraspinatus; In back, causes lateral rotation of arm
T-Teres Minor: Same as infraspinatus, not as strong
S-Subscapularis: Weird, under ribs causes medial rotation of the shoulder
Movers of Shoulder Joint:
Deltoid: Shaped like Greek letter delta Δ
Anterior: Assists with flexion of shoulder
Lateral: Abduction of shoulder/weak action
Posterior: Lateral rotation/ stabilizer for glenohumeriod joint.
Latissimus Dorsi: Large back muscle, strongest muscle in body. Causes extension of shoulder
Pectoralis Major: Powerful muscle, assists with flexion and abduction.
Movers of elbow and Radioulnar Joints:

Yoga Cass #9/Part 2 (your buddy has the handouts from this class)
HW: Practice Ruth Anne’s Personal Inventory Process DAILY
Begin Reading anything by Yogananda
Review……………………………………………………………………………………..
Iyengar and religion can be disempowering
We are here to be empowered and eliminate the Gunas
Gunas from a humble perspective will always be Gunas
Gunas as your inner environment are not who you are
You are not responsible for Gunas. (Subconscious level)
Its how we respond or take Responsibility (NOT BLAMING OURSELVES) that matters
Respond by rebalancing harmony. This response is the measure of who you are

Thanks Bonnie, How sweet is this? Your great! Christina Celebr8 Life!!
ReplyDeleteBonnie, thank you so much for this write up! I am dropping out (just emailed y'all), but totally eating up this write up. It's food for my soul. Wish I could keep up the class but I gotta draw a limit with my time. So this is really nice, it feels like I'm still gleaning the benefits. Thanks dear!
ReplyDeleteThank you Bonnie,this will be a very helpful review of what we have learned in class.
