Eka Pada actions and the feet

This is a class highly influenced by the teachings of John Schumacher in a class where he stressed the action of spreading the skin of bottom of the heel and sole of the foot from inside out (medial to lateral) to bring stability to the hips and softness in the abdomen. I taught this sequence on Tuesday when I filled in for Mary Heath.
