✨Yoga Asana Series✨
Session 1 | Backbends - Heart Openers Thurs | 5 Feb | 6 - 7.30pm
This will be the first in an immersive series on yoga asana, an opportunity to dive a little deeper into the poses to gain a greater understanding of how they best serve your body.
Our first session is all about Backbends - Heart Openers, the opening of the front body.
We’ll explore poses like
Cobra
Upward facing dog
Camel
Locust
Bow
Bridge | wheel
The key focus is always on the shape feeling good in the body, moving with awareness, breath, intention & kindness. We’ll cover the key actions of the body in each pose along with variations & props to adapt & modify as required.
As well as the physical alignment and refinement we will explore the internal layers of the subtle energetic body and how harnessing and directing our energy through each shape can really transform how it feels and flows. This is the intelligent subtle body, the realm of prana and the yogic models and philosophy of the Pancha Vayus and the 5 Koshas.
Once we have a greater understanding of each group of poses we can weave the knowledge & wisdom into every practice enhancing our yoga experience.
