Release Breathwork is a technique that evolved from Conscious
Connected
Breathwork. The breather intentionally connects the inhale with the
exhale without any pauses, breathing deeply solely through the
mouth.
The active part of the breathing, which involves music, is roughly 20-25 minutes long, during which the participant is flooded with oxygen and can begin to feel sensations throughout the body and mind. Participants have noted feelings of euphoria, a sense of deep love and connection to loved ones and the Universe. At the crescendo of the experience there is a visceral release in the form of a scream.
This is an integral part of the experience, as the scream lets go
of stored emotions and possibly trauma. An emotional release that
ranges from mild to life charging, with some participants unlocking
stuck perspectives from childhood and past lives.
Many of the clients I have worked with have stated that a single
session has been as beneficial as years of traditional talk
therapy. The Release Breathwork workshop or session is the quickest
and deepest somatic therapy that is safe for virtually everyone at
any age group.

January 20th 1-2:30pm - Foundations of Vinyasa flow - With Michelle (UNHEATED)
A Vinyasa flow (Sun salutation) is a set of poses that are executed in a flowing sequence with your breath. This “flow” is practiced often in between sets of poses or in between standing and floor poses. The sequence consists of Plank, Chaturanga, Upward Facing Dog, and Downward Facing Dog. Each pose is linked through breath, an inhale or an exhale.
Foundations of this flow are important, to build strength, focus and breath. Providing a good foundation in these poses can help you to do them safely, protecting your back, neck and shoulders, and help you move thorugh the flow with more fluidity and ease.
Join me in this 1.5hr fun and informative workshop that helps you to understand the basics of our flow, why it's importatnt to modify, when you need and to modify to build your stength by working through these poses from the ground up. This workshop is for beginners to seasoned yogis that want to improve their practice and break down each pose in detail. We call it a practice for a reason, always learning, and improving your practice little by little. Forever a student!
See you on your mat!
