(“funny how we can follow someone for years on Insta, and then one day, they are here! cant wait to meet you in person” - Kristen)

Schedule:

Thursday, April 18th : 18.15-20.15

Inversions : A playful approach to inversions involves taking the time to sense the weight shift that happens when you go from being upright to upside down. The ability to feel center and to move away from center makes shapes such as shoulderstand, headstand, and handstand more accessible. In this class, you will have the opportunity to explore different ways of weight shifting into these postures so that you can feel (and find) where your center of center is. With an emphasis on what grounds you and an exploratory approach to traditional postures, you will leave feeling more connected with the ground, your center, and yourself.

Friday, April 19th : 10.00-11.30

Pelvic floor and more : The ability to feel and connect to your core and pelvic floor makes traditional shapes feel more stable, strong, and balanced. There are a number of ways to connect to the pelvic floor, both through mindfulness and using anatomical connections all of the way down to the feet. Drawing from exercise science, body mapping, and anatomy, this class will use thoughtful movement and different focal points to take you on a journey to learn more about how you can create more awareness and ease of movement through the pelvic floor and core.

Subtle Energies of the Body - Prana Vayus

with Silas Bluemel

Sunday, June 9th

12.30-15.00

This workshop is an opportunity to shine a spotlight into the subtleties of the Body by diving into the Prana Vayus. Prana is considered to be “a universal energy” and much more than simply breath. Prana moves our bodies and our minds, it is an infinite intelligence that’s is just waiting for us to be harnessed. In the yogic tradition, there are five functions or movements of prana are known as the vayus—Prana, Apana, Somana, Vyana, and Udana— each governing different physical and subtle activities.

In this workshop, we’ll start (or continue) exploring and tapping into their transformative potential to deepen your yoga practice and expand your awareness. It will be a combination of both asana, breathwork, and meditation.
Whether you’re a seasoned practitioner or new to the practice, this workshop welcomes all levels.
