Award winning BEGINNER’S YOGA Workshop

Have you ever had a friend or family member respond to your suggestion of a yoga class with one or more of these statements?

• I would feel silly in a yoga class.
• I don’t have a mat.
• I’m not flexible (don’t you love that one?)
• It’s too confusing.
• It’s weird, all that “om-ing” and stuff.
• I’m too old to start taking yoga classes.

Then send them to this workshop!  They will participate in a user-friendly introduction to yoga:  the postures, the breath, the philosophy.

Hip and Shoulder Pose - Two Week Intensive

Have you ever longed to find your way into poses like full lotus (Padmasana),split pose (Hanamunasana),crane pose (Bakasana), standing half bound lotus (Ardha Baddha Padmottanasana), firefly (Tittibasana), bound angle pose (Baddha Konasana), and tortoise (Kurmasana) to name a few?  These and many other interesting poses will be discussed, taught, and explored through practice and play in a 2-week intensive on poses specifically designed to open the shoulders and hips. Join instructors Patti Confort and Patti Doyle as we go beyond our perceived limitations and discover our innate courage in an environment that will encourage physical and energetic growth. Students of all practice levels are welcome as modifications and props will be used to assist in the awakening process.

Each two and a half hour intensive will include pranayama and vinyasa movement designed to open and prepare the body for more intense standing, seated and arm balancing poses. Reading materials on physical and subtle anatomy will be provided.
