Learn all about this miraculous area. With a bit of anatomy, somatic movement to build awareness, and specific cuing, propping and modifications we’ll dive deep into the workings of the neck, shoulder girdle and the spinal and muscular connections above and below.

Let’s come together and celebrate the beauty and depth that Yoga can truly be.
We’ll start with some gentle asana to set us up for finding a comfortable seat with an erect spine. Next, we’ll practice a few traditional forms of Pranayama, Yogic breathwork. That’s the perfect entry into a sweet, intentional meditation focused on making peace with our inner desires and fears. We’ll take a mini-break and come together for a lecture and discussion on the Kleshas, one of Classical Yoga’s essential teaching on how we create on our obstacles—and how we can start to unwind them, too.
