We are thrilled that Michelle will be back for another jam-packed immersion weekend! Join us for all or part of this unique opportunity to explore and deepen your yoga practice.

Weekend Overview

Every morning will begin with Mysore practice followed by Pranayama and Yoga Sutra study. Each afternoon, we will focus on a different element of Ashtanga Yoga.

This year's immersion topics include:

Healthy Backbending
Most students who enjoy yoga, enjoy it because they are flexible, so stretching deeply feels good to them. However, without intelligent movement, this can cause many problems and possibly pain in the body. In this class, we will take an intricate look at how to backbend in a healthy way, supported by strengthening of the legs, inner thighs, glutes, and both the superficial and deep core muscles.

Bandhas, Vayus & the Subtle Body
We will take a look at the subtle (or etheric) body and how it operates. With this knowledge, we will access a deeper level of our natural forces to bring into play when attempting to transition between postures. In particular, we will focus on how to lift up and jump back.

Sangha Study & Discussion
Students will have a safe space to ask any questions concerning their practice and studies. This may include a question about a posture in which they are struggling or experiencing pain, an emotional experience they are having, or a philosophical or historical question about the lineage, yoga and related subjects.
