July 20-22, 2012 – Paula Lynch

Description

Each class will be comprised of pranayama (breathing techniques), asana practice, followed by deep relaxation. In between the yoga classes you can find a
hammock to nap in, a deck chair to lounge in, or a sunny patch of grass inviting you to sit down for a moment. If you can scare up a game there is badminton, bocce ball,hoola hoops, horseshoes, Scrabble, and more. There’s a grand swimming hole deep enough for diving from the floating dock, a labyrinth for walking meditation, groomed paths for strolling the ten acres, and a sweet new hot tub to soothe what ailes you.
C’mon up and relax.

Summertime is a wonderful time for adventurous and playful practice. And this summer you are invited to join us for a weekend retreat of playful practice at the lovely Heathen Hill. We will venture into new territory by bringing curiosity, a sense of adventure, and a fresh approach to our practice of yoga.

This workshop is for intermediate or higher level students who are interested in practicing deeply, wholeheartedly, with the intention of uncovering the learner (and teacher) within themselves.

We will have plenty of time to explore the integration of asana, pranayama and yoga philosophy in our practices.
