Yoga Alignment “Balance and Precision”
Alignment Yoga is a practice that invites us to consciously explore the alignment of each posture, to reconnect with our senses and to create a subtle balance between strength and flexibility.
Similar to the traditional yoga styles from which it originates, the practice is aimed at students those seeking:
- A hands-on approach, with manual/verbal postural adjustments,
- A progressive development path that enables them to establish good technique and evolve in their practice of asanas (postures)
- A community environment that supports and encourages the integration of yoga’s spiritual teachings.
Benefits of practice:
- Establish a solid foundation or deepen your yoga practice,
- Better understand your body and mind,
- Radically improve the health and mobility of the body and joints, while reducing the risk of injury,
- Become more attentive and efficient in daily activities,
- Learn to face challenges with courage and confidence.
Somatic Yoga – A practice of meditation in movement and inward listening.
Somatic Yoga is a gentle form of therapeutic yoga that promotes body awareness and awakening through joint mobility movements, yoga postures, and breathing. In a Somatic Yoga class, students are guided through a series of movements that open and involuntarily stretch the body. Throughout the class, students are invited to “experience the sensation of moving the body”. Somatic Yoga serves as a great preparation for regular postural yoga classes. Its main intention is to:
- balance the nervous system,
- help students bring movement and prana to areas of the body that may be dormant or stuck, and
- help students manage stress or chronic pain, improve coordination and return to the present moment.
“I’m so relaxed, I feel like I just left the massage therapist’s office.” -Somatic Yoga student.
