S.E.A Yoga Workshops ~ Stoking the Fire ( core and balance poses) Saturday, November 21, 9:30 - 12:30 This workshop will cultivate strength and warmth in the center or "Core". Moving from the center or "inside out" creates a unified energy field that strongly supports, nourishes and integrates the yoga practice on and off the mat. This practice explores Hatha Vinyasa Yoga and principles from Martial Arts and Qi Gong. For a unique experience in building strength and keeping balance with Asana for the body and the mind. Rajasic poses will lift the spirit and bring a sense of joy and well-being. All Yogis are welcome! The teacher, beginning and advanced student will enjoy the many offerings of this practice.
S.E.A Yoga Extended Flow ~ Hip Openers and Forward Folds Sunday, November 22, 9:30 - 12:30 Matthew will lead us through a Hatha Vinyasa Yoga series of poses to give nourishment and attention to a highly charged area of the body, the hips and hamstrings. The use of Breath to cleanse the body and clear the mind will assist us in moving deeper into this area. This class will focus on opening the hips and creating flexibility in the hamstrings. Opening this area of the body helps us to move forward in life and to release negative emotions and behaviors. Eating lightly before this class and drinking plenty of water before and after this workshop is highly recommended for optimum benefits to be received. All levels are welcome. Modifications will be given for beginning students, more advanced options will be given for advanced students and teachers.
