are you wired & tired? been on your feet all day? sweating through chaturangas like a super yogi? then, have i got the pose for you! legs-up-the-wall will calm & soothe you, plus i’ll show you how to keep the pose on your own mat.
no wall in sight? no worries! grab a block & take this alternative instead.
refining your alignment in upward facing dog pose will allow you to lift up, shine forward, and eliminate lower back, wrist, or shoulder pain.
practicing this can take some endurance – as you can hear i’m short of breath at the end! – so remember to breathe, and move with your breath.
take your chaturanga dandasana to a new level by using these building blocks (literally!) to create stability, strength, & proper alignment.
ahhh….the elusive & much-repeated chaturanga dandasana. many will try it, some may suffer through it, but it is possible for everyone to do safely & powerfully! here’s a modification that will help you build strength, allowing you to smoothly flow through a vinyasa class, while saving your joints from wear & tear.
in a vinyasa yoga class, stepping your foot forward from downward facing dog pose takes flexibility, core strength, and, sometimes, a little help.
are you ‘all over the mat’ in a vinyasaya class? do you wonder why other people seem to float through a flow effortlessly? by properly shifting the placement of your hands & feet in downward facing dog pose, (adho mukha svanasana), you can start gliding smoothly along your practice!
took my mother-in-law for her first lululemon purchases!
join Aaron Warren & me for another assisting workshop, to learn concrete skills for safe, effective hands-on assisting, and experience principles of alignment that will allow you to fully understand any pose.
we will review what was taught in march’s assist workshop, plus additional new poses and assists. attending last month’s workshop is not a prerequisite for attending this one – All are welcome!
Students of all levels: As a student, you will gain a new perspective on your personal practice and a deeper understanding of energetic flow.
Yoga teachers: As a teacher, you will gain confidence and tools in delivering assists that are direct, clear and powerful; showing up in your students both on and off their mat!
