February 4th, 2017 2-4 p.m. $30 by 1/28, $40 after

For more info or to register, click REGISTER HERE

We hear about the “core” so often in yoga classes, yet it can feel vague and elusive during practice. Many of us are unclear on what it is, how it moves, and how we can fully access its power.  In addition to a physical exploration of our core, Alex will revisit some of the core philosophies at the foundation of yoga and weave them into our asana practice.  Join Alex for this illuminating, thoughtful, and embodied experience!

Chakras, meaning “wheel” in sanskrit, are energy centers along our spine. Each of the 7 chakras is associated with a particular element, and helps us regulate an array of processes from organ function to emotional wellbeing. In the busyness of life, we often disconnect with our subtle body energies, which takes its toll on us physically, mentally, and emotionally. This workshop will move awareness up the chakras via hip openers, arm balances, inversions, backbends, pranayama and meditation. Join Alex for this full spectrum experience!

Anatomy of Breath

December 1, 2016

We can live weeks without food, days without water, but only minutes without breath, yet most of us are not aware of the breath until our yoga practice draws our attention to it.  Join me for this 2 hour workshop that explores our most direct connection to our life force.

Friday, December 9th from 6:30-8:30 p.m.  $35 at Palosanto Wellness Boutique

Breathing is an automatic yet extraordinary process. Of the 23,000 breaths per day, how many of them do we fully receive? Breathing happens without thinking, yet we can exert our consciousness upon it, which in turn affects our nervous system and emotional state. In this workshop we will examine the 3 dimensional shape change that occurs with breathing, and it’s deeper effects on us. Be prepared for a short lecture followed by asana practice followed by pranayama.

The cost of this specialty workshop is $35

We hear about “the core” so often in yoga classes, yet it eludes many of us during practice, and can move through an entire class utilizing only our peripheral muscles.  Many of us are unclear on what the core is, how it moves us, and how we can fully access our power.  Ignite yourself from deep inside, and join Alex for this informative & engaging anatomy & movement exploration in demystifying the muscles of the core, and learn how to engage them more fully!
