GOOD ALIGNMENT IS GOOD THERAPEUTICS

with Andrea Frade

this therapeutic stretch class invites any level of student to explore the therapeutic effects of anusara® yoga. therapeutic stretch is a yoga class that focuses active methods of stretching in order to highlight the transformative aspects of alignment. when we mindfully engage the bio-mechanic properties of the body within the open and supportive context of radical affirmation we create an environment for enormous transformation to occur, within the body, mind and heart of our practice. in this class we will address the specific ways in which the universal principles of alignment can help clear pain, address misalignment and consequently shift unhealthy patterns in the body, opening the heart, mind and body into the very wake of wisdom and grace.

EMPOWER YOURSELF TO HEAL THROUGH YOGA THERAPY!

with Cath McCarthy

 

Saturday, July 17, 1-3:30PM

Sunday, July 18, 1-3:30PM

 

align your body, heart, and mind with the power of nature and celebrate the freedom of healing. every cell in the body is programmed for vitality and bliss. and yet, due to unconscious patterns and self-limiting beliefs, we're not able to fully access this empowerment. through the precise alignment principles of anusara yoga®, we will learn how to transform pain and limitation into an experience of inner expansion and strength.

 

over one weekend, two sessions will focus on teaching the tools necessary to create new and healthy patterns in the body. the lower body workshop (saturday) will detail therapeutic exercises to heal the feet, ankles, knees, hips, and lower back while the upper body  (sunday) workshop will focus on the exercises to heal the middle/upper back, neck, wrists, elbows, and shoulders. we will learn observation skills, physical adjustments, and an overall understanding of optimal alignment that allows for greater freedom of expression on and off the mat. open to all levels. bring an open heart and a playful mind. 

 

Cost: $60/session or $110/both

 

limited to 5 – Please pre-register by emailing staff@virayoga.com
