For some, Ashtanga Vinyasa is associated with a strong, fast-paced, somewhat inaccessible practice. All too often students resist it, feeling intimidated or perhaps inadequate for it. Nothing is further from the truth! By all means, sincere practice (done in an intelligent way, consistently and over a long period of time) can strengthen and condition almost any human body to place itself in impossible-looking Asanas. But unlike common belief, Ashtanga Vinyasa can also be one of the most accessible Yoga styles, as it can be fully tailored to your needs and abilities, wherever you may be starting from. The Primary Series itself is called Yoga Therapy, and we can easily modify it to suit injuries, health conditions, pregnancy and more… Join me in this short introduction to the practice that changed my life - this is not an understatement! See for yourself what is possible when we lay down the solid foundations of a loving and kind approach to your body, respectful discipline, introspection and surrender underneath a cleverly-designed sequence, modified to suit you. No experience needed, just bring your child-like curiosity and willingness to participate! Please let me know at the beginning of practice if you are pregnant or have any injuries/health conditions.

A 40–45 minute talk, some asanas, followed by an open Q&A — suitable for all levels,This workshop brings together two perspectives on something that doesn't get talked about enough in yoga spaces: what it's actually like to practice yoga when your brain works a little differently.One of us lives with ADHD and has experienced first-hand how yoga changed the way she moves through the world. The other is a psychologist and yoga teacher who can explain why — what's happening in the brain, what the research says, and how the nervous system benefits of yoga map directly onto the challenges that come with Anxiety and ADHD.Together, we'll do a presentation which covers what ADHD and anxiety are (and what they aren't), the neuroscience behind why yoga is such a good fit for neurodivergent brains, and practical tips for finding your way on the mat — whether you're someone who suffers from anxiety, has ADHD yourself, or a teacher looking to make your classes more inclusive. We'll also do a short guided breathing exercise together, some postures and end with a short meditation.It's not a clinical talk. It's an honest one.

The importance of psoas for our health, vitality and emotional well-being. The psoas is the deepest, most stabilizing muscle in the human body, which affects our structural balance, width of movement, joint mobility and functioning of the abdominal organs. It's the only muscle that connects the spine to the legs, responsible for keeping us standing and allowing us to lift our legs to walk. A healthy psoas stabilizes the spine and provides support through the trunk, also forming a good shelf for the abdominal organs. Some recent studies also consider the psoas, a perceptive organ composed of bio-intelligent tissue that literally embodies our deepest desire to survive and thrive. That is, it is the primary messenger of the central nervous system, so it is also considered as a spokesperson of emotions. This is because the psoas is connected to the diaphragm via the connective tissue or fascia, so it is affected in both breathing and reflection fear. An accelerated lifestyle and stress generate adrenaline that chronically strain the psoas, preparing it to run, jump into action or shrink to protect us. If we constantly hold the psoas in tension due to stress, over time it begins to shorten and harden. This will make our posture and the functions of the organs that live in the abdomen difficult, leading to back pain, sciatica, disc problems, hip degeneration, painful periods or digestive problems. On the other hand, a tense psoas sends tension signals to the nervous system, interferes with fluid movement and affects diaphragmatic breathing. In fact, the psoas is so intimately involved in basic physical and emotional reactions, that when it is chronically tense, it is sending the body continuous signals of danger, so it can resonate in exhaustion of l the adrenal glands and immune system. This situation is aggravated by the way we sit or the postures of our daily habits, which reduce our natural movements and further constrain the muscle.

This one-hour class blends gentle yoga with the uplifting practice of Kirtan—call-and-response mantra chanting that opens the heart and calms the mind.
