The use of blocks, blankets, bolsters and straps to your asana practice are meant to support the body into deepening into the posture.  
 

Do you know when and how to call these into your practice in a beneficial way?  Or are you literally propping yourself up by dumping into these tools?
 

The BadAsana Series – yoga with weights practice – is one that integrates light to medium weights into a hatha-vinyasa infused dynamic practice.  Additionally, we add props to support and deepen into the experience of this practice. 
 

Join me for this 3-hour workshop where we will:
 

·      Deconstruct foundational asanas

·      Demonstrate the proper and effective use of props

·      Illustrate how the integration of weights build stamina, strength and deepen flexibility

·      Highlights how to integrate modifications that support pre-existing injuries 

·      Build awareness of the breath through pranayama 

·      Conclude with a deeply restorative savasana that leaves you feeling energized and uplifted.
 

*Open to ALL levels.
