Studio 2 | 12:10-1:50 PM (~100 min) Assignment: None — closing session, full program review


This is the last session of the Winter cohort. No assignment, no slideshow, no deep breakdowns. The goal is to move through the full range of forms covered in the program — continuously, with minimal stopping. The cohort should be carrying most of this from memory; directional cues only.

Short closing talk at the end (both): ongoing practice sessions at the studio, and the Primer completion deadline for the one-year access extension.

Co-teaching split:

  • Patrick leads: Ignition + all standing forms
  • Asia leads: all lunge-family forms
  • Floor work: split between Patrick and Asia (see session flow below)
  • Patrick leads: Assimilation
  • Both: closing talk

Assimilation (Patrick)


Seated Wide Inflection and Seated Inflection were cut for time in Session 6. They were covered in Session 5. Brief revisit in Session 7 — no introduction needed, just practice.


Keep this to 10 minutes. Two topics:

1. Ongoing practice sessions

The study group ends today. Studio practice sessions continue after — participants can keep practicing in person alongside others. Share the format, timing, and how to join. (Confirm current schedule and enrollment link before the session.)

2. Primer completion — access extension

Primer access is valid for three months from enrollment. Complete all 12 segments within that window and it extends to a full year — including all future course updates and the full forum archive.

The study group assignments covered Segments 1-5. Segments 6-12 remain. Smart Revisit keeps earlier segments active as they continue forward, so it doesn’t mean restarting — just continuing from where they are.

(Confirm the exact cutoff date for this cohort before the session — approximately [early July 2026] based on enrollment timing.)

No slideshow for this talk. Conversational.
