SUMMARY:Yield to Yin- An Extended Yin Yoga workshop w/ Crista Ellis
DESCRIPTION:at Asheville Community Yoga \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nYin Yoga focuses on the connective tissues of the body\, improving flexibility\, and increasing circulation in the joints. Suitable for all levels of students\, Yin Yoga is a perfect complement to the dynamic and muscular (yang) styles of yoga. \n\n\n\nThis is not your average yin class. This is a potent practice where the challenge is cultivating strength and flexibility in relationship with your mind and body. Poses will be low to the floor\, holding anywhere from 3-12 minutes. This extended yin yoga workshop will allow us the time to explore and understand our physical boundaries. We will have the space to safely approach edges and decipher where and when to challenge self-limiting boundaries. \n\n\n\nTogether\, we will cultivate a tender approach to practice patience\, breathe deeply\, and illuminate the depths within. \n\n\n\nPlease note: Yin Yoga is not restorative yoga. Like all yoga practices\, if the tissues you are targeting for exercise are damaged in some way\, please give yourself a chance to heal before resuming your regular practice. \n\n\n\n*Room will be heated to 78 degrees. \n\n\n\n\nCost: $30 \n\n\n\nFinancial Aid Available \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\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. \n\n\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 Sarah sarah@ashevillecommunityyoga.org

SUMMARY:Reset Your Nervous System For Relaxation w/ Jot Anant
DESCRIPTION:Yoga teaches us that we are each born whole\, complete\, and perfect!! Due to our many life experiences we tend to forget this state of wholeness\, we forget who we truly are\, and we get lost in our physical\, mental\, and emotional reactions to life. It is important for us to remember that the human nervous system simply cannot evolve at the rapid pace that society and technology has. Hopefully through what you learn in this workshop you can begin to extend yourself a bit more grace during natural moments of challenge and upset. \n\n\n\nDuring this experiential workshop we will utilize a holistic and traditional approach. Working with breath-work techniques alongside intuitive Yin\, Yoga Nidra\, sound healing\, and shaking meditation to reset the nervous system back to a state of ease and relaxation. \n\n\n\nWe’ll begin with a brief exploration of how a holistic Yoga practice impacts the nervous system. We’ll delve into multiple techniques\, unpacking each one before putting them into practice.  \n\n\n\nWe’ll explore:THE NERVOUS SYSTEM: Learn about the different aspects of the nervous system\, the basic functions\, & how to gauge when your nervous system is out of balance. \n\n\n\nTHE PANCHA KOSHA THEORY: Learn about & experience the 5 layers of Being: Physical\, Energetic\, Mental/Emotional\, Intuitive\, & Spiritual. Learn practices to work with each layer. \n\n\n\nTHE MAHA VAYUS: Learn about & experience the 5 main energetics within\, the Vayus (or Pranas): Grounding\, Uplifting\, Centering/Balancing\, Expansion\, & Connection to the Whole. Learn pranayama (breathing) techniques to connect to each one. \n\n\n\nMy hope is that through this workshop you’ll acquire a wide array of simple yet profound tools that you can skillfully use as you learn to access your current state of being and what your needs truly are. \n\n\n\nCost: $30 \n\n\n\n Financial Assistance Available \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPLEASE NOTE: We encourage pre-registration for all programming.

SUMMARY:Moving Into Recovery w/ Alex White
DESCRIPTION:Nurture the innate healing process of the mind and body as it returns to homeostasis after alcohol and drug dependency. We will delve into the intersections of addiction\, trauma\, and disordered eating and move through an asana and pranayama practice specifically designed to target the parts of the brain most affected by addiction.

This workshop will allow practitioners to set an intention and achieve a state of embodiment\, thus illuminating the connection between negative self-talk and the habits it can lead to. \n\n\n\nDiscussion\, journaling\, and meditation will round out a fulfilling and inspiring workshop dedicated to strengthening the connection to Self and thus: the external world. \n\n\n\nOpen to anyone walking the path of recovery for addictive and compulsive behaviors. \n\n\n\nCost: $30 \n\n\n\n Financial Assistance Available \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nPLEASE NOTE: We encourage pre-registration for all programming.

SUMMARY:Happy Hips & Hamstrings w/ Jot Anant
DESCRIPTION:at Asheville Community Yoga \n\n\n\n  \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nAn array of things can contribute to tightness in the hips & hamstrings; running\, stress\, sitting\, even simple daily activities such as walking! We often carry patterns within our movements\, not all of which are good or healthy for our bodies. Restrictions within these regions can cause significant discomfort\, even pain.  \n\n\n\nBy better understanding our anatomy\, our postural & movement habits\, as well as the mechanics of Yoga poses\, we can begin to unravel held tension in the hips & hamstrings\, creating space for energy to flow more freely throughout the body. \n\n\n\nIn this playful workshop we will cover basic anatomy for these regions of the body to gain a better understanding of our own unique anatomical structure and how to support our individual needs. We’ll flow deeply in a yang style to create heat and length through the back line of the body as well as the full circumference of the hip. We’ll also rest into yin style postures to target the joints and connective tissues. Throughout the workshop we will utilize props to support all levels of practice. \n\n\n\n You’ll learn how to strengthen and stabilize in order to find more flexibility and freedom in this powerful region of the body. As we work systematically and artfully towards a number of peak postures you’ll experience how this balance of yin and yang creates more spaciousness and ease. \n\n\n\nCost: $30\, Financial Assistance Available \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\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. \n\n\n\nPlease create a mindbody account for each participant if registering more than 1 person. If you have any questions regarding registration\, drop-in fees\, etc… please email Sarah sarah@ashevillecommunityyoga.org
