It is good to get moving a bit, especially after a restful weekend, so we decided to start Sunday Evening Yoga Therapy course. Starting April 11th, it will be led by skilled Lucie Königová. The course is suitable for both beginners and advanced practitioners of yoga, the class explores the main principles of mindful movement and breathing. The aim is to develop strength, flexibility and stability in and through yoga poses and simple sequences. Leading students to greater awareness and promoting self-inquiry, the class cultivates ease in the body and the mind. Therapeutic Yoga focuses on the fundamentals of structural alignment to promote healthy functioning of the body systems, particularly the spine, large joints, the core and deep, postural muscles. In this class, students will be guided to learn healthy movement and breathing patterns and unlearn the ones that do them disservice - both on and off the yoga mat. The class will also include suggestions for personalized home practice, basic Ayurvedic recommendations, pranayama (breathing practices) and meditation. To find more details, go here.
