About this Event
This is a 2 part workshop with the first day on October 16th and the second part on October 18th. Below is the full description:
FRIDAY (Oct. 16th): Rooted to Rise: Foundations of Standing Poses & Hand Balances. Thisis a 2-hour All-Levels Workshop.
Build strength, mobility, and confidence from the ground up. This workshop explores the foundations of standing poses, with a special focus on opening and stretching the legs and hips while cultivating balanced alignment and purposeful action.
We’ll begin with accessible standing poses and hip- and leg-opening work, refining the principles that create stability, spaciousness, and freedom in the body. From these strong foundations, we’ll progressively move toward intermediate hand balances, discovering how the same alignment principles, core awareness, and grounded action can transform the way we approach more challenging poses.
Designed for all levels, this workshop offers both accessible options and deeper challenges, inviting each student to work at an appropriate edge while staying connected to the joy of practice.
Expect: standing poses, hip and leg stretches, alignment exploration, foundational Anusara-inspired principles, and progressive preparation for intermediate hand balances.
SUNDAY (Oct 18th): Supported & Aligned: The Foundations of Yoga Using a Chair and Other Props. This is a 90-Minute Alignment Workshop.
Discover how a chair can become a powerful tool for creating greater awareness, stability, and freedom in your yoga practice. This 90-minute workshop uses the chair to explore foundational poses and alignment with greater precision and support.
We’ll focus on the fundamentals of healthy alignment, exploring how the actions of the body create a strong and spacious foundation for every pose. The chair offers support while also providing new ways to experience familiar postures, making this workshop especially valuable for students wanting to refine their alignment, deepen their understanding of foundational principles, or approach yoga with greater confidence.
Accessible to all levels, this practice emphasizes mindful movement, intelligent alignment, and the Anusara-inspired principles of stability, openness, and heart-centered awareness.
