Upcoming Workshop: Deconstructing the Forward Bend with Kim Austin-Peterman

In this class we will focus on the many misinterpretations and limiting physical patterns which commonly tend to mis-align a broad range of movements including the forward bend.

We will find a more literal understanding within certain postures by looking at how our joints and muscles relate to them.

This knowledge can help us discover how freeing up our bodies will not only improve our yoga practice but also bring much ease to every day living and help us age more gracefully!

About Kim

Kim Austin Peterman CMT, RYT 500 Kim is the co-owner and co-creator of The Space Above Yoga Center. Kim has been practicing and studying yoga for seven years and has successfully completed both the 200 hour and 500 hour level of teacher training with well respected teacher Anna Pittman. At this level she is certified and registered (500RYT) with the National Yoga Alliance. Kim has also experienced profound influences studying under various Master level teachers such as Aadil Palkivala and Sarah Powers. She is currently working to complete 500 hours of study in Ayurveda to become a practitioner of this cosmic science. She will be certified by Emerson Theological Institute and the Dhanvantari Ayurvedic Center, after finishing her studies with teacher Vijaya Stallings sometime in early 2008. She plans to blend today's more modern lifestyle with the ancient wisdom of Vedic philosophy, by cultivating more interest and effort towards each. With this interest and more understanding, she hopes that the nature of an Ayurvedic lifestyle can become more available to the Western mind. Kim has also extended her yoga studies and teachings to infants, toddlers and children. She is trained and certified in the Internationally known Itsy Bitsy Yoga Program. Kim humbly and thankfully appreciates that her abilities and offerings as a mother, teacher and therapist are ultimately gifts of a divine nature.
