First part of the workshop focus: Standing Poses, come and spend the afternoon learning details of all the standing poses. You will learn the correct actions of each pose, what part of the body each pose is for, how each pose works energetically and how to use props so each pose is available to all level of the practitioner. You will leave with an understanding of why some poses should come before or after one another to enhance their effect.

Are you afraid of going upside down? Do you experience discomfort in backward bending postures or have difficulty rising into wheel pose? Do you know what wheel pose is? Come and find out why and take your yoga practice to a new level.
Fourth part of the workshop focus: Putting our new intellectual knowledge into our bodies. Preparatory exercises for these poses will lead you into inverting and backward bending with ease. Students will receive individual attention and suggestions for future practice and development in these poses. Variations will also be offered for more advances practitioners. Come and achieve something you never thought possible. All levels are welcome. This workshop is not appropriate for menstruating women.
