SUMMARY:Yoga for Healing Trauma w/ Alexandra Culotta
DESCRIPTION:Trauma impacts everyone at some point in their life. These experiences are stored in the body and can contribute to lasting symptoms.  \nIn this workshop\, we will address the ways traumatic events impact the body. We will find safety in our bodies and with each other. We will practice techniques for nervous system regulation and pain relief. We will practice deeper stretching to access trauma stored in the fascia of the body.  \nThis workshop will begin with a discussion and handouts on the effects of trauma on the nervous system and body\, states of arousal\, tools for self regulation\, and methods for healing trauma. We will then move into a gentle Asana practice\, focused on breathwork\, centering\, and finding calm within the body. Participants will be invited to journal about their experience before a brief break.  \nThe second half will begin with slightly more active practice involving bilateral hemisphere switching and release. As a group\, we will practice safety with others through optional shared contact exercises.  \nOur final phase on our mats will be deeper gentle stretching\, to begin accessing the trauma stored within the body. Participants will be invited to journal once again\, before we close with a sharing circle.  \nParticipants in this workshop will leave with:  \n\nTools for self-regulation in moments of distress as well as general anxiety\nA renewed sense of safety in their bodies as well as with others\nPoses to calm and relieve pain associated with trauma and stress\nEnhanced understanding of how trauma impacts the body\nThe knowledge that they can opt out of any part of the workshop and/or do whatever makes them feel safe\, without criticism or judgement.\n\n\n\nCost: $30 \n\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:Partner Yoga & Easy Thai Massage w/ Leaflin Winecoff
DESCRIPTION:Partner yoga is a great way to connect with your asana practice in a new way\, while deepening connection with a loved one. Thai yoga massage (sometimes called “lazy person’s yoga”) is an ancient practice that can be described as a symbiotic healing dance\, where the benefits of yoga are experienced by both the giver and the receiver.  \nWe use hands\, feet\, elbows\, knees\, rhythm and gravity to gently open the energetic channels of the body\, restoring ease and flow. This practice is done fully clothed on a mat on the floor\, and typically does not use oils. The aim of this workshop is to foster connection through curiosity\, compassion\, and communication\, and awaken our innate healing capabilities! \nWe’ll warm up with a few simple partner yoga practices before delving into some basic (but extremely effective!) Thai massage techniques. The basics of intelligent body mechanics\, giving and receiving\, and cultivation of loving kindness are paramount to to this practice\, and will be cultivated throughout. \nThis is not a training to become a professional bodyworker\, but is meant to provide participants with useful tools to be shared with friends and loved ones. The hope is that you’ll leave feeling great in your own body\, and inspired to help others feel great in theirs! *Please do come with a partner you feel comfortable practicing with.  \nPlease note: This workshop is limited to 20 participants and you must come with a partner in order to participate.  \nBoth people need to register on Mindbody to reserve your space!\n*Modifications and variations will be shared for every technique taught as there is no one-size-fits-all massage. Please arrive in good health and ability to communicate your body’s needs. \n*You must be a Licensed Massage Therapist in the state of North Carolina to charge for bodywork. Please share this practice responsibly with those you trust. \n \nCost: $30 per personFinancial Aid Available- Please stop by the front desk\, call\, or email kelsey@ashevillecommunityyoga.org. \nPLEASE NOTE: We encourage pre-registration for all programming. Registering in advance guarantees your spot and helps the studio have adequate staffing.

SUMMARY:Happy Hips & Hamstrings w/  Jot Anant
DESCRIPTION:The session will begin with an in-depth lecture\, diving into the anatomy of these areas to help you gain a better understanding of your unique and individual body structure. This foundational knowledge will empower you to support your own specific needs in your practice. \nTightness in the hips and hamstrings can stem from everyday activities like running\, sitting\, stress\, or even something as simple as walking. Often\, we carry unconscious movement patterns that may not serve us well\, leading to discomfort or even pain. By deepening your understanding of your anatomy\, postural habits\, and the mechanics of yoga poses\, you’ll begin to release the tension held in these regions\, creating more space and allowing energy to flow freely throughout the body. \nFollowing the lecture\, we’ll move into a dynamic flow. You’ll experience a deep\, Yang-style practice designed to create heat and length along the back line of the body\, with a focus on the full circumference of the hips. The session will also include Yin-style postures\, where you’ll rest and target the joints and connective tissues\, allowing for deep release and rejuvenation. Throughout\, props will be used to support all levels of practice\, ensuring that everyone feels both comfortable and challenged. \nIn this workshop\, you’ll learn how to strengthen and stabilize these areas to unlock greater mobility and freedom. As we work toward a variety of peak postures\, you’ll experience how the balance of Yin and Yang brings about spaciousness and ease in the body. \nEach participant will also receive a detailed PDF handout\, filled with valuable insights and tips to continue your journey beyond the workshop. \nAre you ready to stretch\, strengthen\, and unlock new possibilities in your body? I can’t wait to guide you through this transformative experience! \nPlease note: this workshop is 3 hours long. \nCost: $45Financial Aid Available \n \nFor more information on Jot Anant\, please visit her website at www.JotAnant.org. \nPLEASE NOTE: We encourage pre-registration for all programming. Registering in advance guarantees your spot and helps the studio have adequate staffing. If fewer than 5 participants register the event may be canceled. \nRefund Policy: We understand that life happens and unforeseen circumstances come up. If life offers up an unexpected event and you need to withdraw from the workshop: \n\nA full refund will be issued if you need to withdraw 4+ days before the workshop.\nIf you need to withdraw within 3 days or fewer\, no refund is provided.\n\nPlease create a Mindbody account for each participant if registering more than 1 person. If you have any questions regarding registration\, or financial aid\, please email Kelsey at  kelsey@ashevillecommunityyoga.org
