Walk-through of the Cat Routine:
Sit down in lotus position, close your eyes and ground in the moment, calm down your breathing.
Deep breath in - breath hold, bend your ribcage to the right, to the left, breathe out.
Deep breath in - breath hold, turn your body to the right back, left back, breathe out.

Wide Cat (arms & back activation)
High cat (arms & back activation, focus on neck and shoulders)
Powerful cat (arms & back activation, focus on biceps)
Open cat (full back contraction) option to feel your breath opening
Upward facing cat (full body activation)

Tap the body centre gently ten times with your fists.
Feel if there are muscle fibres that want to be tensed more, take your time to experiment.
Time for cat play:
Stay a cat for as long as you want, alone or in group. No talking, feel the animal awakened inside you. Feel the joy of not being human for a while. When you want to talk, first stand up on two legs and become human again.
