The heART of Theming

What is it in a yoga class that has you walk out feeling more and thinking less?

The answer: The THEME & ATITUDE, the HEART of the class!

We will explore how to:

1. Integrate an uplifting, creative, and inspirational theme.
2. String the theme through the class from beginning to end.
3. Inspire your yoga teaching: bring your mat, iPod, favorite quotes and any yoga texts that inspire you.

 Friday July 8 7-9 PM  Patanjali's 8 Limbed Path lecture with Marni Task. 

Patanjali, often called “the father of yoga” codified many teachings about how to experience yoga/love.  In this workshop we’ll learn about all 4 chapters and delve deeply into Chapter 2, the portion on how to practice yoga.

 

 Saturday July 9 1-4 PM  "Happy Hips, with Marni Task"

 

It’s said that every part of our body holds emotional memory, especially our hips. We will explore our full range of motion in this area and leave no stone unturned! Get ready to rock out and release the past so you can fully be blissful in the present moment! Woo hoo!  Poses we’ll explore…..agni stambasana, baddha konasana, lotus, virasana, supta virasana, and maybe some arm balances like dragon fly that require open hips and an open heart…..or maybe it’s an open heart first and then the hips will open!  Come find out!

Sunday July 10 1-4 PM Master Class with Marni Task, plus tips for improving your inversion practice, and tips for assisting inversions

 

What does it mean to be a master?  It is said that in the cave of everyone’s heart is a master. When we practice yoga we open the door to the heart and meet the master within. In this workshop we’ll have a 1 ½ potpourri class for the entire body and then explore the hands on enhancements for many of the asanas we practice.

Jivamukti Alignment & Adjustments Workshop

SATURDAY, APRIL 30th....Take a road trip or catch a flight to Loveland, Ohio for a one-day workshop at the World Peace Yoga & Motion Studio!!

9:00-12:00 pm:  Jivamukti Rise & Shine (Standing Poses, Back Bends & Arm Balances)

We are in the midst of Spring and days are becoming brighter. We're peeling off our winter layers, ready to rise out of hibernation and shine in standing poses, wake up with back bends and bloom into arm balances. In this workshop we'll spend the first 1.5 hours with a passionate Jivamukti Class followed by an hour of Hands on Adjustments for many of the poses we practiced.

1:30-4:30 pm:  Happy Hips (Hip Openers, Twists, Forward Bends & Arm Balances)

As we move into the energy of the afternoon, we'll surrender our stresses with a passionate class full of grounding hip openers, twists and forward bends and we might even find that once we get grounded we can "git on up" in an arm balance like dragon fly. We'll see! Class will be followed by a Hands on Adjustment workshop where we'll learn how to assist the asanas in our series.
