Wednesdays 9:30 – 11:30 am
starting Nov 20, 2024 for four weeks, ending December 11
Location: St John’s Church, Thorold
Would you like more fluidity in your movement? Are you living with chronic neck and shoulder tension? Join Cheryl for an experiential look at your anatomy, the energy flows that animate you and how to restore more joint mobility. The yoga therapy approach is about small adjustments applied patiently and with awareness. It’s gentle, fun and quite accessible. In this format, we’ll have ample time to explore the concepts and see how they apply to your unique situation. The focus will be on chakras 4 & 5 and the associated glands and organs of the upper body.
Course Outline:
Week one: Ribs and Thoracic Breathing (heart chakra)
Week two: The Sensational Scapulae (heart chakra)
Week three: Shoulder Release and Strengthening (heart chakra)
Week four: Natural Neck Alignment (throat chakra)
Each session includes educational content, physical practice, breath awareness, meditation, journalling and deep rest to consolidate learning. We follow the workshop with social time over tea and refreshments. Please bring your mat, yoga blocks, several blankets and writing material.
$100 for four weeks (or $30 to drop in)
