Basics or Intro to Yoga:
A
course designed to introduce students to the form, theory
and basic alignment foundations of Hatha yoga based
on Anusara principals used in Anusara Yoga, a system
developed by its founder, John Friend. It is presented
in a 4-week revolving schedule which allows atendees
to enter on any given week. This course is highly recommended
to any new student or any student returning to yoga.
Instructor, Debbie Forrestt will present the thoery,
postures, techniques and philosophy, based on a lineage
of teachings, true to the ancient teachings and practices.
Specifics:
This class is more intimate (4-5 students). Class conducted
in smaller room, with more focus on student’s “Specific”
needs. Each week we will target an area. For instance,
one week may focus arm balances. While it is not important
that student execute the specific pose, work will focus
on learning Anusara techniques to develop strength,
etc, to work toward that goal. This is an all-level
class, but instructor’s permission required.

All
Levels
A combined class allowing level 1 students more of a
challenge while taking more advanced student deeper
into the postures. Emphasis is on deeper bends, balancing
postures and inversions. More standing and strength
building postures are added. (Headstand, shoulderstand,
handstand and backbends are introduced.) Students are
encouraged to work at their own level.
Restorative:
Learn yoga techniques that will help to rejuvenate the
soul, relax the mind and energize the body. Great for
kids 10 and over as well (must have adult please-may
use adult's class card!) Share simple relaxation, breathing,
and therapeutic alignment techniques which provide a
plentitude of health benefits for healing, rehabilitation,
and therapy.
Gentle
Yoga/Yoga for Healing:
Yoga
postures are taught in an environment geared toward
restoration, healing and relaxation. While alignment
and form will be stressed, less heat and activity will
be generated. Breath, mantras, vedic study and meditation
will be the central focus. Great for beginnners!
The
Practice
A
2-hour rendition of John Friend's sequencing for teachers
and advanced practitioners. We all practice together
as I call out the postures in order of John's sequence.
Knowledge of Anusara Universal Principles of Alignmnet
and teacher's permission highly recommended. Call Debbie
