Take Flight!!! with Erika Mercer

SATURDAY MAY 18th 11:00am-1:00pm

 In this workshop, we will explore how to incorporate our abdominal strength tocreate upward life and make the body light as a feather to more easily approach various arm balances and inversions. An explanation of the Bandhas will be presented and how these core locks can be engaged to enhance your yoga practice. Multiple arm balance poses we will be broken down and explanation of placement of your limbs will be carefully instructed to make each pose accessible. A flow class makes it difficult to take the time to dissect these masterful poses, but in this workshop atmosphere we will take time experimenting slowly and going over the basics and additional cues to advance your practice.

If the intermediate practice of arm balances has ever interested you, if you’re working to master them, or if you would just like some helpful tips to take you to the next level of your practice this workshop is for you! Free your mind of fear and join us for some playtime!

Optimal Posture - A Yoga Wall Workshop with Dolores Little

Are you a slumper? A swayer? Chances are you're one or the other to some degree- despite Mom's best efforts all those years ago to get you to sit up straight and stop slouching. She probably told you that you'd look and feel better if you worked on your posture, and she was absolutely right(as Moms always are)! During this workshop, we’ll use the floor, a flat wall and a variety of yoga wall accessories to explore the various yoga postures that emphasize the alignment of optimal posture where the joints are stacked (shoulders over hips over knees over ankles). This workshop is beneficial for yoga practitioners at any level.

Sunday, May 19th, 3:30-5:30 pm
