This Restorative Workshop takes Restorative yoga to the next level. Accompanying Alison and Beth will be Reiki Master, Gina DuMond. Restorative yoga is practice of moving into a place of "Stillness and Ease." You are brought into this space with the use of props, bolsters, and blankets to support the entire body. Once the body enters into this relaxation state the nervous system is brought into balance which induces complete rest and ease, free from tension and anxiety.

POSTPONED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE! Saturday, March 28 - 2 Part - Yin-Anatomy Flow : A Two Part Offering - 10:00-11:00am & 12:00-2:00pm Part 1: Join us both for a Therapeutic Yin Yoga class 10-11am, lead by Beth with Victoria offering gentle assists and therapeutic touch to enhance the yin yoga experience. (A short break from 11-12pm) Part 2: Victoria will lead a 2 hour cohesive well-being workshop based on hip mobility from 12-2pm. This workshop is aimed to help all-level participants gain a deeper understanding of the importance behind their own hip mobility and how to address mobility restrictions. Feel it: Learn what the “feels” of sensation are saying when you are in postures and gain insight to the duality of the giver-receiver role when addressing your own bodies sensory feedback. See it: Review what lies sub-surface anatomically and better understand the importance of how visualization of that anatomy can be used as a tool for inner discovery during your practice. Apply it: Test out what props, angles, and strategies best help you gain access to fluid hip movement that has lasting effects. Self care is a tool you can take anywhere you are to help navigate body discomforts, aches & pains in a direction towards more fluid waters. With opportunities throughout the workshop for open discussion, we invite you to join in and as always, come as you are! We will meet you and your body where you are at within your mobility and knowledge base and help you gain greater access to fluid hip mobility and to deepen your connection to yin postures as a self care and pain relieving tool. Victoria is passionate about movement science and helping others understand ways to access their own mobility through self care, stretching and applied techniques. She has been a practicing massage therapist for 15 years, and has lead numerous anatomy and applied technique workshops over the years. Pre-registration is strongly encouraged as space is limited to 20 attendees - cost $65 for both Part one and two, $25 for part one only 10:00-11:00am, $50 for part two only 12:00-2:00pm. |

MaySaturday, May 2 - Book Club (Part 2) - 11:30-1:00pm
Part 2 to follow on the second half of the Yamas & Niyamas. Due to the conversation and interest created from the 8 Limbs Workshop we have decided to extend the conversation and create a book club. This book club will focus on yoga philosophy, and expanding knowledge of yoga beyond the mat. Our first book is the Yamas & Niyamas: Exploring Yoga's Ethical Practice by Deborah Adele. We are separating this book into two parts. Part one - pages 1 - 103, scheduled for discussion on Saturday, March 14, and part 2 - pages 104 - 186, Saturday, May . This will give everyone plenty to time to read at their leisure. This group is free to attend! We encourage anyone looking to grow and expand to attend! ***Please note a copy of this book can be ordered by Jessie through The Book Nook in Saranac Lake (one local business supporting another). #shoplocal Saturday, May 9 - Deep Restorative & Reiki Workshop - 2:00pm-4:00pm Join yoga instructors Alison Flanigan and Beth McNally as they guide you into a place of deep relaxation.
