Chakra Exploration on Saturday Nov 21st

Join Alex at Prana House Yoga from 2-4 pm on Saturday Nov 21st for an energetic practice!

Alex Holmes Private Yoga

The chakras are energy centers along our spine which help us regulate a variety of processes from organ function to emotional wellbeing.  In the busyness of life we can become easily disconnected from our subtle, elemental selves.  In this workshop we will focus on the first 3 chakras via standing poses, hip openers and core work culminating into arm balances.  Expect some sweat, laughter, along the journey.

Investment: $30/$35 after November 15th.
