Do your joints sometimes feel worn down after a class? Learn how to have a lifelong yoga practice, without overworking the joints.

After years of practice, the body develops unconscious habits of movement. This workshop will rewind the tape a bit and break down what to use and how to move more safely and sustainably through transitions.

Continuing to apply awareness and curiosity about what it is we think is “right” in a practice, keeps the practice fresh and more suitable for longevity. 

Come find out how to make the yoga practice a lifelong one!
