Perhaps you take one or two classes a week and love the benefits, but know that a more regular home practice is necessary to truly transform your body and your life. A home yoga practice is valuable not only because it can bring you the cumulative benefit of a daily practice, but by taking control of your own practice, you'll gain a deeper understanding of yoga poses and their specific effect on your body, as well as a deeper, more personal meditative experience. Yet many beginning yogis struggle with either the motivation needed to get on their mats and practice without a teacher, or the knowledge of how to choose and sequence asanas (poses) according to their effects on the body.
This workshop aims to provide you with all the tools you need to build a home practice:
* an overview of the types of asanas and their effects
* guidelines on sequencing your personal practice
* customizing your practice for your own body & its needs
* your space - home, office, hotel, or outdoors and its effects
* a library of resources to answer any questions that might come up during your home practice
The workshop will alternate between short guided vinyasa flows and discussion. The discussion will be interactive and will prompt students to try out the asanas we discuss and create their own short flows in class.
All levels of yogis are welcome - whether you're looking to begin a home practice, or deepen one that you already have. However, we do ask that you be familiar with basic yoga poses, and have taken at least a couple yoga classes.
