1. Foundation of Standing Poses

Date: 1/11/25 12pm-2pm
Description: Standing poses often make up the majority of poses taught in any given yoga class.

2. Foundation of Forward Forward Folds 

Date: 1/11/25 2:30pm-4:30pm
Description: In seated and standing forward bends, the spine is elongated and extended, or rounded forward when we bend through the hip joints. These poses can be difficult, and in order to perform them safely and effectively, good alignment is required. We'll look at the main advantages and effects, adaptations, warnings, typical misalignments, and techniques for teaching and practicing these postures at beginner, intermediate, and advanced levels.
