“Finding Balance” with Morgan
Sunday 6/6, 10AM-Noon, $10
Moving from breath work and seated stretches, to abs and other
core-building exercises, then flowing into sequences of standing
poses, Forrest Yoga builds both strength and flexibility in the body.
This 2-hour workshop will focus on staying balanced—both in its
physical aspect and as a way of being in the world. Students will work
with inversions, one-legged standing poses, and play with “gravity
surfing” arm balances that bring vitality to the body and energize the
spirit.

“Standing Tall” with Rob
Sunday 6/13, 10AM-Noon, $10
Moving from breath work and seated stretches, to abs and other
core-building exercises, then flowing into sequences of standing
poses, Forrest Yoga builds both strength and flexibility in the body.
This comprehensive 2-hour workshop will focus on the legs. From hips,
hamstrings, quads and calves, right down to the toes, students will
learn to work with “active feet” to protect and strengthen the knee
joins. Innovations to classic Warrior poses, along with a selection of
basic and advanced inversions, add new perspectives to what it means
to stand tall in the world and help bring energy—as well as
relaxation—to the legs and beyond.

“Cultivating Strength” with Fatima
Sunday 6/20, 10AM-Noon, $10
Forrest Yoga invites students to go deeper into their yoga practice,
evoking new sensations of the body, mind and spirit. This 2-hour
workshop will use pranayama (breath work), seated stretches, and
abdominal exercises to tone the core muscles, bringing strength to the
internal systems of the body and preparing students for more advanced
twists, backbends, hip-openers and balancing poses. With a focus on
“exploring the scary places” within ourselves, this class offers
opportunities for physical and emotional release, leading to a renewed
sense of relaxation and vitality.
