Description
Summer at Heathen Hill provides the perfect setting to dedicate time to deepen your yoga practice. We will gather together for practice sessions that allow the time to explore the subtle aspects of “effortless effort.” The mornings will be dedicated to finding that balance through active sequences that thoroughly delve into standing poses, forward and backward bendings and twists. Our late afternoon practices will expand on the theme from the perspective of restorative postures, inversions and pranayama.
This workshop is for intermediate level practitioners who are dedicated to penetrating the surface of the rich practice of asana and pranayama. Please bring an open mind, a full heart and a learner’s inquisitiveness.
