Coming soon... the Moving with Grace Series



Have you hit a plateau with your regular practice?  Do you feel you could be getting more medical benefits from your yoga? 
Revolutionize your practice by refining your skills of attention. 

The Moving with Grace Series explores postures practiced regularly at Geezum Crow Yoga, but with a fresh twist.  Each Sunday in April, we will practice a new series based on one of the four directions of movement – Forward bending, backward bending, lateral bending, and twisting.  You’ll visit old favorites like half moon, standing head-to-knee, bow pose, and cobra, for example.  The series is designed to give you a new feel for these classic postures by learning alternate ways of preparing your body for these positions.
Instead of relying on the heat to warm us up, we will use repetitions of gentle asana-s in combination with the breath to open the body.  The class will be moderately heated but not hot like a regular hot yoga class.  All four classes will be transcribed and available for your home practice needs. 

Anna Van Fleet has instructed Bikram yoga at Geezum Crow Yoga for three years, and has continued her training in the style of Viniyoga.  This series represents a final project for her teacher training program, and the sequences we will practice will be refined and elegant.  Anna is pursuing a masters’ degree in yoga therapy and will open her own practice for one-on-one consultations in the future.  The principles of Viniyoga have transformed her studio practice and she hopes to share these gifts with our wonderful Geezum Crow community.

Pre-registration is mandatory for this series, and the class is limited to 15 practitioners.  The classes will be held Sundays, April 7, 14, 21 and 28th at Geezum Crow, and the series cost for Geezum Crow studio members is $30.  Cost for non-studio members is $50 and the class fills up first-come-first-serve.  Geezum Crow class cards are not applicable.
