Creating a strong Foundation

With Alison Alstrom
January 14th, 2012, 1:00 to 3:30pm

Anusara alignment points lead all levels of practitioners into experiencing a new dimension of yoga. By learning to engage muscular and organic energy into our poses, we find strength and freedom. By delving more deeply into alignment principles, we learn to energize and soar into poses with grace and ease. You will leave the workshop with new tools to incorporate into your yoga practice and as always with yoga, a heightened sense of well being and peace. Suitable for all levels

Yoga teachers will also love this workshop!
