Workshop Details :
Saturday November 26th:
Standing 10-12pm
Being able to establish roots and ground in standing brings about the stability of both mind and body. This session focuses on a dynamic vinyasa class with emphasis on being stable in muladhara chakra.
Twisting 1-3pm
Twisting postures release and open up the expiration of accumulated karma. This class explores opening the hips as well as the relationship to the seven chakras.
Sunday November 27th :
Bending 10-12pm
Bending backwards opens the heart and Anahata chakra while bending forward assimilates Prana in the Manipura chakra. This session delves into both to ultimately bring about the opening of Susumna Nadi and the flow of Kundalini Shakti (cosmic) energy.
Balancing 1-3pm
Whether balancing on the feet, the hands or the head these asana bring about a higher level of awareness and consciousness. In this final session we start to access to the higher level of psychoenergetic centres in the throat, third eye and crown chakra.
All sessions include the four practical aspects of Astanga yoga: asana, pranayama, dhyana and mantra.
