“REACH UP, REACH OUT” 10 Hour training to support yoga teachers, care givers, school teachers and anyone interested in volunteering in their community or abroad. More info to come soon……
In this 2 hour workshop will slowly and sweetly unwind you from your week while braiding together a slow flowing asana sequence, Anusara therapeutics, guided meditation and calming breathing practices. You will have an opportunity to linger peacefully in these soothing and well-supported poses with gentle hands-on adjustments and low-light. No previous yoga experience is necessary. All props are provided.
Co-taught with Justicia Friese, this training is designed for teachers and serious students who want to deepen their studies of yoga by exploring physiology and biomechanics, and how they relate to asana practice via the Universal Principles of Alignment. The course explores all poses on the Anusara Level 1 syllabus, and many on Level 2. Sept 15-16, Sept 29-30, Oct 13-14, Oct 27-28, Nov 10-11, 2012.
This dynamic class places emphasis on clear and safe alignment with complimentary and diversified sequencing in an encouraging and playful environment. Gina’s keen eye for corrections, both within transitions and poses, will enhance all levels of practice.
“There is always an element of surprise and playfulness and a spiritual strand that helps students reflect on where they are in their practice.”
Jeff Harlan, English teacher and poet
