------------------------------------------------ We are going to have a Kundalini Yoga workshop class on Saturday October 13th from 1-4 pm (Donation only).
Concepts from HOLISTIC LIVING Kundalini Yoga - w/Ravi Konduri
October 13th, Sat 1:00 – 4:00 PM
Come
and learn the yoga technology to invoke and use your innate kundalini
(bio) energy to its fullest potential. Gain the knowledge and tools to
take advantage of your own breathing cycle to control your mind, as
breath is the key mind-body connector. Traditional kundalini yoga is
based on keeping the seven major chakras (nerve plexus) along the spine active and under control through asanas (body control) and pranayama (breath control). Come and experience your inner “self. This is a
donation only based class. --------------------------------------------------

Please Register by TBD Module 1a - The creative use of straps within a flowing Yoga environment. As teachers, we are all aware of the benefits of statically supporting many

Lots of new, innovative and interesting strap usages to pass onto you. My promise as always, your time will not be wasted and you will come away with a large amount of useful techniques that are ready to use.

*A 4 page take home handout.
*3 unique “warm up” sequences with straps.
*Numerous “in the flow” usages of straps during the standing posture portion of your class.
*Numerous “on the floor” usages of straps while seated, including some great abdominal and core workouts.
These
sequences will reach into and stimulate some very unique areas and enhance the depth of your Yoga experience. Please realize that you
don't have to teach at my usual dynamic and flowing pace, these
techniques will benefit any style of Yoga.
