Spain. So we're going to start
0:33

0:41
mountain. So we start off a
0:41
mountain and the next little
0:44
page we are introduced to this
0:44
tiny little bull and his name is
0:48
Ferdinand and Ferdinand you
0:48

0:53
bulls are bulls are supposed to
0:53
be warriors. So we're going to
0:55
come into view, we're going to
0:55
come into warrior one pose,
0:59
coming to warrior one pose as as
0:59
we meet Ferdinand. And we find
1:03
out that he's a whole he's with
1:03
other bulls. And the other bulls
1:08
love to run and jump they loved
1:08
butt their heads togethers. And
1:12
so you know, these other bulls
1:12
are, we're going to come in to
1:15
warrior two pose we're gonna
1:15
come to warrior two is that
1:17
these other bulls run and jump
1:17
in and play. But Ferdinand he's
1:22
our warrior one. So you know,
1:22
we're gonna come back to the
1:26
warrior one as we as we talk
1:26
about Ferdinand. Ferdinand we
1:29
find out doesn't like to run and
1:29
jump, he doesn't like to butt
1:32
heads. But instead, Ferdinand,
1:32
you know, likes to sit among the
1:38
flowers. So we're going to come
1:38
to garland pose, three kind of
1:42
garland poses, we learned that
1:42
Ferdinand likes to sit among the
1:44
flowers. And he likes to sit
1:44
under a tree, sorry, come into a
1:50
tree pose you guys. And then
1:50
we're gonna come into Chair
1:57
Pose, because we find that the
1:57
Fernand loves to sit and smell
2:00
the flowers are in a chair pose.
2:00
Um, I love about the talk about
2:05
this cork tree. If you look at
2:05
the picture, there's a whole
2:08
bunch of corks that you would
2:08
find in a wine bottle. I love
2:12
that little detail. Because cork
2:12
trees don't have little, it
2:15
looks like they're all bunched
2:15
together kind of like grapes.
2:20
But they're little corks. I love
2:20
that little thing. So we're
2:25
gonna come next week we find
2:25
that Ferdinand's Mother, you
2:28
know, she's so sweet. Um, she
2:28
had worried about him. So we're
2:33
gonna come into cow face pose as
2:33
to, to talk about his mom come
2:38
in a cow face pose to show his
2:38
mom, she would worry about him.
2:42
So she comes in, she talks to
2:42
Ferdinand um, and we're going to
2:47
come into half lotus pose as she
2:47
comes in talks about him. And
2:52
Ferdinand just says, you know, I
2:52
love it here where I can sit
2:54
quietly and smell the flowers.
2:54
But we're gonna come out of
2:57
lotus pose as he talks about
2:57
sitting and smelling the
3:00
flowers. As mom understands, you
3:00
know that, that he's just happy.
3:07
So she goes away, and we're just
3:07
going to come with some twists
3:10
so he can just twist around and
3:10
smell the flowers that are
3:14
around him. Well, Ferdinand
3:14
grows, and he grows big and
3:21
strong. So now, Ferdinand, we're
3:21
going to come into warrior three
3:25
pose, because now he's big and
3:25
strong. And the other bowls are
3:35
now big and strong. And they
3:35
fight. And all they wanted to do
3:41
was to be picked to be in the
3:41
bull fights in Madrid. So now
3:46
we're going to come in the Lion
3:46
Pose. Because lions are fierce
3:49
and new lions, they want to be
3:49
as strong they want to be feared
3:53
as a lion. The Ferdinand, we're going to
4:00

4:09
we're going to come into warrior
4:11
three to kind of show that that
4:11
even though he's now big and
4:14
strong, he's still not warrior
4:14
one. He's still that that little
4:17
further than that we started
4:17
with so warrior one, warrior
4:20

4:20
day to choose the biggest
4:30

4:53
But Ferdinand we're gonna do our
4:59
warrior one to one and our
4:59
warrior three again. He's just
5:03
he went over to sit under his
5:03
cork tree. But guess what, as he
5:08
went to sit under his cork tree,
5:08
he sat on a bee. And guess what
5:14
happened? He went crazy. We're
5:14
gonna do a sun salutation here.
5:27
Because he went crazy. And he
5:27
started pouring and puffing and
5:32
snorting. And all men started
5:32
shouting and jumping for joy
5:38
because they thought he was the
5:38
best. So they took him away. And
5:44
poor Ferdinand was so sad. Well,
5:44
now there's flags and there's
5:52
bands playing. And we're going
5:52
to come in to chair pose.
6:00
Ferdinand's just sitting and
6:00
he's very sad. And there's
6:07
flowers. So we're going to come
6:07
into garland pose. And there is
6:14
a big parade and there is men
6:14
with Bandoleros and sharp pins
6:26
and their goal was to make
6:26
Ferdinand mad. And then there
6:32
was horses were going to come
6:32
into horse pose. And then came
6:40
the matador and he was handsome
6:40
and he had this red cape and
6:43
sword. And his job was to stick
6:43
the full last of all and then
6:48
came Ferdinand's we're going to
