Format

We begin the Deepen Your Practice – Yoga Immersion with a general introduction, logistics, and an itinerary for the workshop.  The first day we delve into the internal, energetic, and foundational actions and alignments that support and enhance the more refined alignment principles that are studied throughout the next three days.  Lessons are peppered with experiential exercises, partner work and asana practices to bring the lessons home into each student’s body.  Adjustments and enhancements based around these empowering alignment principles will also be introduced.  As a student, come prepared to practice, learn and have fun!
