Partner Yoga Workshop

Sunday, July 16th, 2023

2:00-5:00pm

Investment: $49

3 CEUs Available Upon Request

Partner Yoga is an intentional, fun, and revitalizing practice that invites communication and love between the pair. Through specific asanas (poses), the partners are encouraged to go deeper in their yoga both physically and energetically. By connecting two bodies through asana, each individual has the opportunity to better understand themselves and each other on and off the mat. Two of the key principles of partner yoga are communication and safety. Here, participants will learn how to establish both of these key principles in their personal practice and with a partner. You will learn how to not only better communicate with yourself, but with your partner as well. These skills transfer to all aspects of life, as we are in constant interaction with others. That said, Partner Yoga is an inspiring practice that enhances the meaning and depth of our relationships to others and ourselves.

Ilona will lead an exploratory practice that allows the participants to try new variations of the asanas practiced all the time. In this workshop, you will learn how to not only practice partner yoga but guide others in the practice safely as well. RYTs can gain 3 CEUs through YA upon personal request.

Yin Yoga Workshop

Saturday, May 6th

2:00-5:30pm

Investment: $59

Huelya will lead a workshop style session exploring the benefits and history of Yin Yoga and how to teach the practice to others. If you are a yoga teacher, this is an amazing opportunity to not only learn how to share Yin Yoga with your students, but to experience it power and benefit for yourself first. After the workshop part is complete, Huelya will take you into an intimate exploration of your body through a Yin Yoga class followed by a Yoga Nidra session. Your awareness will expand with each pose reaching its peak in the Nidra part.

Yin Yoga is a calm, intense, and relaxing practice with long-held poses, usually 2-5 minutes, in as much stillness as your body allows. It consists mostly of passive stretches, and includes some active strengthening poses. The main goal for the physical body is to work the connective tissue – tendons, ligaments, and fascia – and ultimately have a therapeutic effect on the joints. Yin Yoga also works deeply the energetic body by using poses that work certain meridians – the energetic channels in the body.

Nidra is a very deep form of relaxation and awareness expansion, a real treat after the intense Yin yoga practice.

Prenatal Yoga Workshop

Saturday, April 22nd, 2023

2:00-5:30pm

Investment: $59

Join Kelly Yount and learn how to share and practice Prenatal Yoga! In this workshop, Kelly will guide a full prenatal sequence and outline the benefits, best practices, contraindications, and foundation of Prenatal Yoga.

Prenatal Yoga is a practice meant not only for soon to be mom’s to work out physical kinks and encourage relaxation; it also has the potential to deepen mom’s connection to her baby. By focusing on intention breath and movement, Prenatal Yoga helps prepare mom not only for the birth of her baby, but for postpartum life as well. These practices learned in Prenatal Yoga are transferred from mom to baby even before the baby is born, so it can be immensely helpful in cultivating a smooth transition into motherhood, and for baby, into life.

In this workshop we will experience and create sequencing that best supports moms to be. We will discuss the energetic body and physical body, and explore what contraindications are and how to modify asanas. We will deepen our practice and teaching through pranayama, meditation, asanas, and learn how to create a supportive class and community.

Chair Yoga Workshop

April 8th, 2023

Saturday 2:00 – 5:30 p.m.

  • Are you a yoga teacher in search of new modalities to assist your students?
  • Have you thought of using a chair to add intensity to the practice? (Yes, that’s correct: to make some poses more challenging than what they’d be on the mat).
  • Have you thought of designing your own, self-standing chair yoga program?
  • Would you like to empower and help people to practice wherever they are, in the office or at home, when they cannot afford to travel to a studio?

If you answered ‘yes’ to any of the above questions, then you might want to consider this event.

We are providing you with the opportunity to learn how to teach chair yoga, and achieve all of the above, and more! Join us for a fun and engaging weekend to earn your chair yoga certification.

Among the topics covered, are:

  • How to chose the right poses when addressing a specific problem;
  • How to adapt conventional poses and flow sequences, from mat to chair;
  • How to use additional props to create new variations, when the chair alone is not enough;
  • How to create a complete practice inclusive of asana, pranayama, and mediation that would fit any time budget, and getting down on a mat is not feasible.

Practice hands on teaching chair yoga.
