Description
Summer at Heathen Hill provides the perfect setting to dedicate time to exploring your “self.” We will partake in leisurely morning asana classes that allow the time to play with the subtle aspects of “meditation in motion.” Using our bodies, supported by blocks, straps, bolsters, blankets and chairs, we will delve deeply into forward bending, back bending, twisting and balancings. After a restful mid-afternoon, we will gather for a restorative late afternoon practice that includes 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.
