Class Descriptions

Friday, May 19 6:00-7:30 pm

Forward Bends-The nature of Forward Bends is that they teach us about receptivity. In order to get a deeper sense of that feeling, the appropriate opening is required in all areas of the hips. The session will begin with appropriate preparatory asanas.

Saturday, May 20 10:00 am-12:30 pm

Standings-Standing asanas teach confidence – learning to stand on your own two feet. Using Tadasana to inform other standings you will get a more profound sense of this.

Saturday, May 20 2:30-4:30 pm

Inversions– What you learn in standings in terms of the legs applies very much to inversions. Shoulder/ arm opening and strengthening asanas will be taught prior to the classical asanas enabling them to feel lighter.

Sunday, May 21 10:00 am-12:30 pm

Backbends-In Backbending asanas often students suffer from lower back compression. Groin opening Asanas will be presented prior to backbends so that the students will have access to the strength of the legs.

Sunday, May 21 2:30-4:00 pm

Restorative & Pranayama-In this class you will enjoy the more subtle aspects of Asana practice. This is necessary as you move into Pranayama which is the entry into the more meditative aspect of the 8 limbs of yoga.
