4-Week Course in Body Mapping & Functional Movement for Yogis starts February 4, 2016

1/13/2016

 
@ Integral Yoga Institute, 770 Dolores Street, San Francisco. This workshop is offered as a 4-week Series.
The series offers mindful tools based on the Alexander Technique, emphasizing functional whole body coordination rather than flexibility, quality of movement rather than how far or how deep you can move. 

This clear and simple approach uses body mapping to help establish references in the body for safely moving through poses without blocking the flow of energy, circulation, or breath.
In each class we will carefully deconstruct and rebuild poses, highlighting the new awareness. The series is suited for all yoga practitioners, no matter age or ability. Come and treat your body with care, curiosity and reference.

         What Students Are Saying




"I recently took Flora's workshop Primary Body Mapping and Functional Movement for Yogis.  That was exactly what I needed: comfortable settings, a small group and a kind and knowledgeable instructor, who guided us and introduced us to Alexander technique.   Every class was a great combination of theory and practice that helped to easily digest given information and use it in our daily life. Flora is a very attentive and supportive teacher, always ready to help, her explanations of material were clear and easy to understand..." -  Tanya F."  (Oct. 2015)
