As we approach the days that mark mid-summer, give yourself the opportunity to recharge from the heat and increased activity that are typical of this season. This restorative class will use supported asanas to release physical and mental tension while building a deeper awareness of the body and breath.  Using support can allow for a quieter way of working that relies on the movement of the breath.  These asanas will help cool the body and brain bringing a peacefulness that will promote a good night’s sleep.  Open to all levels.

November 6 – 8

In Iyengar yoga, working on the body and breath to discover the mind involves a journey described as going from the periphery to the core, from the gross to the subtle, from external to internal, from evolution to involution, from the intelligence of the brain to the intelligence of the heart and/or from effort to effortlessness.  In these classes Chris will help you progress on that journey by making connections within the body and between yoga poses, demonstrating how to integrate the body, mind and breath to move from action to sensitivity and from sensitivity to reflection.

Workshop hours:
Friday, November 6: 4:00 – 6:00 PM
Saturday, November 7: 10:00 AM – 1:00 PM and 4:00 – 6:00 PM
Sunday, November 8: 11:30 AM – 2:30 PM

Chris feels that practicing yoga throughout life is important because it is really about awareness in everything that you do. Though the physical benefits are most apparent in the beginning of a practice, the mental and emotional benefits are what sustain a person through life. Yoga becomes a lifestyle that is enhanced by awareness of habits, motives, and modes of communication that can be changed for the better. Transformation really is possible when we begin to understand ourselves better!

Thanks to her early training with BKS Iyengar in the medical classes, Chris is very adept at modifying poses for students, understanding their specific needs, and helping each student to reach new levels of physical and mental ease and awareness. Her love of teaching and concern for each individual is apparent.

Chris is a Level 4 Certified Iyengar Yoga Teacher and has taught workshops and retreats in the US, Canada, and internationally.  She has also helped train dozens of teachers in her 40-plus years of teaching.
