“The Stories Behind the Poses” Workshop

Ever wonder what the significance of the Tree is in yoga? And why do we do Warrior poses in a peaceful yoga class?  Why is Eagle pose done with the wings timidly wrapped together rather than emulating the powerful outstretched wings of this majestic bird?

Many of our yoga poses have fabulous myths and stories surrounding them. This workshop will bring to life many of your favorite yoga poses. As you strike a pose, you will learn the ancient stories they reflect as well as discover our contemporary meanings of how the poses affect us physically and emotionally.   This all levels workshop will be part gentle movement, asana and then restorative poses, all woven together with stories from ancient India.
