SUMMARY:6 Week Series for Bone Health (In-Person & Virtual) w/ Diane Saccone
DESCRIPTION:Please note: This date refers to the first of 6 sessions.This course will occur over 6 consecutive Mondays from June 1st through July 6th from 10:00 a.m.- 11:30 a.m. Should you need to miss a session\, it will be recorded and accessible for 2 months. \nFrailty Syndrome is a term used to describe a body-wide set of interconnected issues including musculoskeletal\, cardiovascular\, metabolic and immunologic systems. This group of symptoms is related to the decline of health as we age either as a result of habit\, chronic disease or a combination of both. As we move less\, muscular weakness and atrophy set in\, which cascades to the nervous system\, causing the nervous system not to fire as efficiently because of the lack of muscles to stimulate into action. \nPoor habits\, social isolation and lifestyle contribute to accelerated aging as well as stress and a negative attitude on life. This series will incorporate yoga techniques and strength training to combat common results of Frailty Syndrome\, like Sarcopenia and Osteoporosis. \nSarcopenia- The loss of muscle mass\, where the muscles that die and are replaced by fat\, begins around the age of 30 along with loss of bone mineral density at the rate of 1% per year.  \nOsteoporosis-The risk of bone fracture- increases due to the increasing loss of bone mineral density as we move past the age of 30.  \nYou will also learn how our sensory faculties work in concert to create efficient neuromuscular movement\, sensorimotor integration\, and musculoskeletal activation. We will examine how the brain integrates and processes information and input from the visual\, sensory\, and vestibular systems and how yoga and functional fitness can help us enhance neuromuscular integration to maintain stability and mobility throughout our lives.  \nAdditional skills we will learn include:  \n\nThe importance of proprioception\, especially how the proprioceptively rich palms of the hands and soles of the feet play a key role in establishing better balance in both stillness and movement\nDiscussions around new research about proprioception that shows how it may help restore balance in cases of stroke\, Parkinson’s\, and other chronic conditions that affect walking\nHow to enhance proprioceptive awareness through asana practice\nHow to work with breath-based asana practice to progressively build better balance and stabilize your system from the core outward\nThe role of the foot in maintaining postural equilibrium as the foot moves from static placement to shifting balance in the activities of daily living\, such as walking\, stair climbing\, and reaching\nSimple steps you can take throughout the day to improve your balance\n\nThis course will be available through zoom recordings and digital for those who do not live closeby or may miss a class. Recordings will be available for 2 months after the program concludes. \nStudents will receive a workbook along with the course and this course qualifies for 20 CEUs with Yoga Alliance. CEU’s may also be available for Physical and Occupational Therapists.

SUMMARY:Yin Yoga Teacher Training w/ Kelly Gilmore
DESCRIPTION:Are you feeling the call to slow your practice down?Are you looking for a therapeutic style of  yoga?Are you desiring greater mobility?Are you wanting to incorporate Yin into your Yoga classes but are seeking more training?  \nYin Yoga has so much to offer in regards to healing and alignment on the physical\, mental and energetic levels and has gained popularity in the past many years. While “Yang” Yoga styles (Ashtanga\, Vinyasa and other “flow” styles) focus on muscles\, “Yin” Yoga focuses on connective tissues\, with deeper longer holds and more time spent in stillness. \nThis training will provide you with the knowledge and embodied experience to safely and skillfully guide your students or yourself through transformative Yin Yoga sequences and classes. \nThis 30 hour Yoga Teacher Training is geared towards those who already hold a 200 hour Yoga Teacher Training certificate and is worth 30 continuing education credits through Yoga Alliance. Although the training will be created with current yoga teachers in mind\, the format and information will be accessible for anyone looking for a deeper understanding of Yin Yoga as a therapeutic technique. \n To learn more\, please visit the Yin Yoga Teacher Training website HERE!

SUMMARY:Alignment 101 w/ Dana Maria
DESCRIPTION:Strengthen and stabilize your practice to improve safety and confidence.\nYoga poses don’t have alignment—people do.  \nEver wonder why we do the poses the way we do them? Or why the posture doesn’t quite land in your body? Want to deepen your personal practice with a better understanding of the asana limb of yoga? \nJoin us for a 3-hour all-levels workshop where we’ll explore how to create alignment that works for your body. We’ll move through the poses typically found in any Gentle or Vinyasa class to really get to the heart of how your body can land in each posture\, and fully understand the difference between discomfort and pain.  \nWe will unlock the full potential of your practice and discover how props can bring more comfort\, support\, and empowerment to your yoga journey. \nThrough mindful movement\, and practical techniques\, you’ll learn how to: \n-Adapt poses to fit your unique structure-Find stability and ease in your practice-Reduce strain and prevent injury-Cultivate awareness of your body’s natural alignment.  \nEach asana has its own specific benefits and goals. For example: \n\n\n\n\nEasy Pose: Promotes grounding and stretches hips and back. \n\n\nCat/Cow: Warms up the spine and increases mobility. \n\n\nDownward Dog: Stretches and strengthens\, elevates your mood. \n\n\nWarrior Poses: Builds strength\, balance\, and flexibility\, while cultivating mental focus. \n\n\n\n\nThis workshop is about how yoga feels\, not how it looks. \nIt is perfect for anyone looking to refine their practice\, build confidence\, and move with greater freedom. All bodies and experience levels welcome!\n*3 CE credits for registered yoga teachers \nFor more information on Dana\, please see her teacher profile here! Her weekly classes are Wednesdays 7:30-8:30am Warm Vinyasa Flow\, Wednesdays 9-10:15am Vinyasa Flow\, Thursdays 6:15-7:15 Gentle Flow and Fridays 7:30-8:30am Warm Vinyasa Flow. \n\nCost: $45 \nFinancial Aid Available- Please stop by the front desk or email Kelsey@ashevillecommunityyoga.org \n \nPLEASE NOTE: We encourage pre-registration for all programming.

SUMMARY:Yin Yoga Teacher Training
DESCRIPTION:with Kelly Gilmore (In-Person)\n\n\n\nFebruary 3rd-5th and Feb. 24th-26th \n\n\n\nAsheville Community Yoga is excited to host continuing education for existing yoga teachers and anyone looking for a deeper dive into their yoga journey. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYin Yoga has so much to offer in regards to healing and alignment on the physical\, mental and energetic levels and has gained in popularity over the past many years. While “Yang” Yoga styles (Ashtanga\, Vinyasa and other “flow” styles) focus on muscles\, “Yin” Yoga focuses on connective tissues with deeper longer holds and more time spent in stillness. \n\n\n\nThis training will provide you with the knowledge and embodied experience to safely and skillfully guide your students or yourself through transformative Yin Yoga sequences and classes. \n\n\n\nThis 40 hour Yoga Teacher Training is geared towards those who already hold a 200hr Yoga Teacher Training certificate and is worth 40 continuing education credits through Yoga Alliance. Although the training will be created with current yoga teachers in mind\, the format and information will be accessible for anyone looking for a deeper understanding of Yin Yoga as a therapeutic technique. \n\n\n\nClick here to learn more and to Register!
