I've only ever heard that called windshield wipers, although you could also think of it as a variation on reclined pigeon (or sucirandhrasa, eye of the needle). I also love the psoas stretch lying on a block or bolster (that one I would call supported ardha apanasana, or half wind-relieving pose ).
Yes Beth - that is it exactly. Wind-relieving pose, LOL - no, just released my grateful psoas!!

Yep it does that - you can try both knees to see if you get the other benefit, too.

Good morning!

I will post my workouts now and come back for personals later.

I took a full rest day yesterday. I didn't even do yoga. My body wasn't in the mood!

This morning:

Soul Sweat with Jill- hour long workout
Yoga Upload Hips and thighs practice 15 minutes

Mari Winsor Lower Body Pilates (Trim & Tone Thigh workout)

I didn't feel like working out today and almost didn't workout. I did Mari's Trim & Tone Thigh pilates workout and it is such a fun, easy, no-dread workout that was perfect for today.

Sandra, I don't like how Triple Threat is organized either. I'll be interested in finding out what your special premixes will be for that DVD.

Pat, I liked hearing about your favorite sequence from your Zoom yoga class on the psoas. There is that move in one of the practices of Yin Yoga with Kim Eng DVD and I love that move too.
I can manage 9" to 12" box climbs!

Beth, enjoy your yoga class at the studio tonight.

I did Joyce Vedral's Bottoms Up Gold lower body and abs.

Thanks Beth, I have arthritis in most joints in my body. If I don't move I can't move.

Sorry I haven't been around much. I hope everyone is doing well and sorry for the heartaches and illness some have gone through.

Best birthday present today - I got to see 2 of my grandsons and my son.

Equally important - I'm FRA today!!!

Donna, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, and how wonderful that you got to see your family!!! But what is FRA?

I had 2 at the studio again tonight (had gone up to 3, then 4, then back to 2, haha); it seemed to go well. I did a CS episode when I got home.

Happy Birthday Donna! That's a wonderful birthday present.

Beth, I think FRA might stand for: Full Retirement Age.
