Body – Yoga opens the body to release tension – allowing
the breath and life energy to flow more easily and for our own natural healing
systems to work effectively. Yoga also builds strength, balance, and
flexibility in the body. These three things work together to create the state of relaxation and well being we experience after a yoga practice, leaving us feeling more balanced and free in our body. The structure of our class 1. We begin with a few moments seated on the floor, focusing our mind on our breath to set the tone, centering. 2. We move into a gradual warm up of the body. As we warm up, we move with each inhale and each exhale, flowing with our breath. We progress from simple movements, awakening, to combining movements in flowing sequences, energizing. We finish our warm up with a Sun Salutation (a flowing sequence that energizes the whole body) 3. Next is the standing series. We focus on poses that strengthen and lengthen the body, develop concentration and balance. Each pose is held about 5 breaths and the poses are linked together in flowing sequences. We always balance both sides of the body. Between series, we move through a vinyasa (moving with the breath) to keep heat up in the body. 4. We then move to the floor for deeper stretches. Poses may be held a little longer and focus on forward bending, back bending, twisting, hip opening, and inversions. 5. The last few minutes of class we move into final relaxation – resting on the mat. This is a time for our bodies to absorb our practice and for our energy to balance. Restoring, releasing, renewing. We have a short meditation and then slowly move back to a seated position to close with “Namaste” – a Sanskrit word which means “My spirit honors your spirit”. Class schedule: (Gold Creek Tennis and Sport Club, Woodinville WA) Mondays and Wednesdays 6:15 pm
