The Art of the Vinyasa
Saturday January 12, 2019 @ 3:00 pm - 5:30 pm
An exploration into the form and fluidity of the Vinyasa Yoga Practice
“When the body is aligned, we are able to experience ease within the pose. It is from that ground that power and grace are revealed and the true Yoga begins.”
Whether you’re a seasoned practitioner, teacher or new to the vinyasa practice this workshop is for you!
In this workshop, we will explore the proper body alignment for the most commonly used poses in the vinyasa system, the Sun Salutation or Vinyasa sequence. We’ll explore the anatomy of the shoulder girdle and how the correct organization of the body can create power, stability and length in poses like chaturanga, up-dog and down dog.
We will also look at:
– Ujjai Pranayama and how linking the breath to the movement creates a dynamic, transformational ground for both mind and body.
– Proper alignment of the pelvis to Cultivate Strength and Stability within our standing poses.
– Modifications for injury, pregnancy and building strength.
Expect a well-rounded practice full of Intentionality, Insight and Fun!
