Event Overview

Are you new to yoga or feel intimidated in the studio setting?

I would like to change that. In this workshop we will cover breathing techniques, the basics of meditation, and breakdown 10 yoga poses that are the foundation of many classes including: Tadasana, Chatturanga, Chair, Forward Fold, Up Dog, Down Dog, Warrior 1 & 2, and Trikonasana (Triangle) and Extended Side Angle. These postures are often done incorrectly since students have not had the chance for 1 on 1 instruction in a class.

My goal is to make you comfortable and safe in these poses focusing on proper alignment and how the pose feels in your body instead of how it looks. Many of these postures make up the 'transitional flow' used in many classes, and this workshop will break them all down 1 by 1 with time to practice as well.

Yoga Mat, Personal Towel, Water

What's Provided

MORE ABOUT YOUR HOST

Janet Keogh

My Yoga practice began in 2010. I love how yoga challenges my body, and the calming effect(s) yoga has on my mind allows me to approach life differently.

I teach to share the knowledge I have gained about the transformative powers of yoga. At its most basic level, yoga is about noticing the mind/body connection and using it to better understand yourself and realize you have everything within you that you need to navigate life.

To me, Yoga is about tuning into yourself, a moving meditation that links breath and movement to challenge the body while quieting the mind, allowing your spirit to shine. Yoga helps manage daily stress, anxiety, depression - even sadness and pain. Recognizing that these things live in our bodies, empowers us to work through and release them.
