Equanimity – a workshop with Brian HogencampOver the course of this workshop, we will explore equanimity – from body considerations of gravity, direction, extension and expansion to breath and mind considerations that can enrich our experience in the moment and, importantly, provide buoyancy in life. We will study how breath awareness in asana prepares us for pranayama, and how pranayama, in turn, supports and complements our asana practice.

Ropes Workshop with CorrieIn Iyengar yoga, poses using the ropes are referred to as yoga Kurunta. In yoga Kurunta one learns to manipulate oneself in the various yoga postures by means of a suspended rope as if one were a puppet. Performing yogasanas with the aid of a rope has many advantages. Due to the rope movement the spine becomes supple and even difficult asanas can be done easily and safely.
