In this 5-hour workshop, we will explore asanas and approaches to them that help us bring more freedom and opening to the upper torso. Part of that will involve focusing on how working with the 'thoracic spine' (the section of the spine to which the ribs attach) gives us access to more flexibility in the chest. Suitable for Level 2 or 3 Iyengar yogis.

This 5-hour workshop will give us a chance to explore asanas that strengthen the muscles around the spine, and that therefore support the back, as well as those asanas that challenge the flexibility of the spine. Suitable for Level 2 or 3 Iyengar yogis.

Note that this isn't a back therapy workshop – get in touch to book a private session if you are wanting that approach.

.An afternoon spent exploring the breath & how this effects our asana practice.We will begin by passively opening the body with a step by step progression of lying over blocks.

Bhujakrama is the upper thoracic & shoulder opening section from Lion Sequence. Practiced alone this is the perfect preparation for seated pranayama. In the Pranayama part of the workshop we will explore 3 different breathing techniques. We will finish by linking the breath with some asana.

This workshop is suitable for all levels & styles of yoga.
