Neck and Shoulders Workshop
Have you ever felt like you were carrying
the weight of the world on your shoulders?
Learn poses to incorporate into your
personal Hatha practice. As we learn ways
to respond to and release stress that has
built up in the body, we can then counter the
body's negative reaction to stress.
Releasing tension held in the neck and
shoulders can bring new freedom of
movement in many poses, more ease to the
entire body and in turn peace to the mind.
This workshop is open to students and
teachers of all levels.

Introductory Sanksrit
Workshop
Joseph Campbell wrote "Sanskrit is the
great spiritual language of the world." Its
name dervies from the two works 'Sam' -
denoting well or perfectly, and 'Skritam' -
written. It's sound structures represent an
array of the whole of manifest vibration, on
which the whole creation is built. In
awakening to these sacred seed sounds,
and refining your ability to speak and chant
them, your own perception of the subtle will
certainly increase.
We will spend some time learning with the
Sanskrit phonemes (letters) themselves,
work with stringing them into words, and
then enjoy chanting them with close
attention to detail. A fun exploration into this
beautiful language for students at any level.

Hip Opening Workshop
Learn postures you can incorporate into
your personal Hatha Yoga practice.
In this area of the body we may be holding
tension on a physical, emotional, or energetic
level. Being the area of incursion for the
lower limbs there is much opportunity to build
and hold this tension. By opening the hips we
allow more movement and comfort in the
body and this helps ease the mind.
