UPCOMING WORKSHOPS My friends and students at Wieden+Kennedy mentioned that, during savasana, another Yoga teacher would rub their feet with scented oil. Also, Amanda reminded me in class last week that I "don't do hippie fluff." If you would like to continue not doing hippie fluff, as well as deepen your experience of Ashtanga, join me at these upcoming workshops. The only "rubbing" will be against your comfort zone. The only "scent" will be that of salty sweat. (Tears also accepted.) This Saturday! Advanced Seminar: "Yoga Burn" Location: Yoga Pearl Saturday, May 17, 1:30-4pm, $40 Come see where the Ashtanga series can go, and saturate yourself in the heat, surrender, and self-study that is the inevitable byproduct. We will explore some of the more advanced postures and sequences from the Ashtanga series. I will Nerf them for most levels (please no beginners. If you are reading this, you are probably not a beginner). Register here. Adjustment Intensive Location: Yoga Pearl Saturday, June 7; 2–5pm; $99 Hands-on adjustments have been part of the Ashtanga tradition for many years. In this intensive, you will learn why you might want to help someone by physical touch. More importantly, you'll learn why you shouldn't! We'll use Ashtanga Yoga's first series as a template to practice physically assisting each other. Posture requests are honored, so this intensive is a great way to workshop your trouble poses. It's also great for aspiring yoga teachers to get hands-on practice. Register here!
