UPCOMING WORKSHOPS
ADJUSTMENT, PRECISION & ALINGMENT WORKSHOP
Saturday, 13th September 2025
6-8PM at Amethyst Cave, Southbourne
|
Whether you are relatively new to yoga or have been practicing for a while this workshop is designed to give you a solid foundation and understanding around alignment in variety of standing, sitted and laying postures. Creating correct alignment and bringing precision into the practice has a number of important benefits. First of all, bringing attention to the correct alignment in asanas enables us to tune in our bodies on a very subtle level. Understanding the movement and action that is happening in postures gives us much greater control of our bodies. Secondly, practicing with the philosophy of precision enables us to build a strong foundation for development and ensure that our practice is completely safe. The idea behind this workshop is not to bring yourself into “perfect shapes” but rather about bringing mindfulness into your own practice to understand the way the body moves to achieve ease in movement. |
