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 2-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. \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*2 CE credits for registered yoga teachers \n\nCost: $30 \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!
