Have you wanted to try yoga but youve been intimidated by the Sanskrit

names of the poses, the unfamiliar sequences, or thought you werent flexible enough? Or, would you like to move more slowly, with more attention to each pose? In this weekend intensive, well demystify and explore the most common yoga poses, learn proper alignment, move with great care and concern for our own unique bodies, and emphasize the importance of finding what works in your body and taking care of yourself. In a totally non-competitive and informal classroom, there will be time for lots of questions and help with developing your own personal practice to do at home if you wish (in as little as seven minutes daily as taught by Mark Whitwell). Well also discuss the basics of yoga philosophy, including the different paths one can take based upon ones temperament, and the basic dilemma presented by Patanjali in The Yoga Sutrashow do we overcome the false feeling of disconnection and obtain a unified, peaceful state? Well explore how ideas from The Yoga Sutras (e.g., contentment, non-harming, being of service, and mindfulness) can be relevant and incorporated into our lives every day. And, well have fun! All you need to bring is your body in some comfortable clothing and some water, if you wish.
