Join Richard Schachtel for a 8 week Course on The fundamentals of yoga posture practice starting Thursday June 22 at Center for Yoga of Seattle.
Students will learn the basic standing poses which prepare students for forward extensions, rotational poses, backward extensions, and inversions.
The Hallmarks of learning Iyengar Yoga are:
- The emphasis on creating good, safe alignment in every pose
- The use of everyday props to give stability, prevent overstretching, and allow the student to do poses with better alignment.
- Intelligent sequencing which properly prepares students for more advanced and intricate practices without fear of injury.
- Responsive teachers who can give alternative poses to those who need them.
Cost:
- The course is regularly $144 and is on special for $80.
