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 an 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!\nFor more information on Dana\, please see her teacher profile here! Her weekly donation-based classes are Mondays 9:30-10:30am Gentle 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: $30 \n2 Continuing Education Credits are available for yoga teachers \nFinancial Aid Available- Please stop by the front desk or email Kelsey@ashevillecommunityyoga.org \n \nPLEASE NOTE: We encourage pre-registration for all programming.
