Yoga for Adventurous Beginners
Method of Delivery: Classroom based
Class is suitable for students already with some yoga experience. This term we will delve deeper into our asana practice and try new variations while being mindful of our breath. We will explore our body and breath more and observe how our mind behaves when facing challenges both on and off the mat.
Classes include:
- Building on the fundamental breath techniques and poses already introduced in term 1
- Exploring pranayama (breathing techniques) more deeply, and introducing retention of the breath
- Mastering the breath while in asana
- Inversions, exploring the sholderstand cycle more deeply
- Hip openers -tension versus compression
- Engaging (moolabandha) the pelvic floor and building core strength and awareness
- Standing poses- finding strength and stability
- Variations of forward bends
- Variations of back bends
- Experiencing traditional yoga philosophical themes both on and off our mats.
Tutor: Sheila Gavin Robollo.
