Adaptive Yoga: Chair, wall and props for working with physical and emotional conditions.
Adaptation is about progression. Think about it. The second we no longer adapt, even on the most subtlest of levels, we begin to lose that sense of growth and expansion, and risk entering into a state of stagnation. Stagnation in any situation to eventual dissolution and demise. So, adaptive yoga is yoga in its truest form. A method for living.
What adaptive yoga offers:
- Core strength for a healthy back and improved limb movement
- Improved respiratory capacity and ease
- Improves overall muscle strength and range of motion
- Reduces the negative impact of chronic stress on the body by helping to regulate stress hormones
- Contributes to improved self regulation and mindfulness
This workshop will focus on teaching methods for working with these specific issues:
- Respiratory issues (Reactive Airway diseases, Cystic fibrosis)
- Neuromuscular disease/disorder (Parkinson, ALS, Multiple sclerosis, Myopathy)
- Depression/Anxiety and Hyper arousal & hyper vigilance
Weekend Schedule: Saturday October 27 & Sunday October 28, 2018

5 Elements and the Yoga Practice
Balancing the 5 elements through yoga
Sunday November 18, 2018
The Yoga Connection, 101 E. Market St., Smithfield, NC 27577
Within yogic philosophy the world is made up of Space/ether, Air, Fire, Water and Earth. But does that mean those are the elements of the world?
What this means is that all things have these properties. Some things have more earth properties such as solid, steady, dense or hard, perseverance, and responsibility. Each of the elements has physical, behavioral and emotional aspects. When in balance these elements have a positive affect on our body and mind.
This workshop will use asana, pranayama, exploration of the bandhas, and meditation to explore the balancing of our body and mind through the properties of these elements.
