Description

Ashtanga workshop
With Lisa Connolly ERYT500 (Experienced Registered Yoga Teacher)
YACEP (Yoga Allience Continued Education Provider)

Cost: £25 this includes one pass for an Ashtanga class with me to be used before the 30th of October i.e. valid for 4 weeks, you will message me to book into the class💜

There is the option to cancel for free up to 48 hours before the workshops starts. If you cancel after that time I will have keep your deposit. Members can pay £15, they can use their membership allowance to book a place, however I will still look for a deposit of £10 to secure the spot. If you have passes you can use one to book your spot also for a small discount on the price. If you have no passes, you can buy a single pass for £10 to book your place, the balance of £15 will be due on the day of the workshop.

My philosophy about Ashtanga Yoga is that it is a framework from which you form a self practice that serves you! It is more about the breath-body connection than contorting your body into crazy shapes. It is also a practice that allows you to increase your flexibility and strength at the same time. With common sense, time, discipline and patience you can utalise this practice into a beautiful moving mediation while keeping your body and mind healthy, supple and strong.

We will have an introduction to the practice. We will cover all the basics and go through the poses (up to Navasana) We will break down the sequence and include modifications and as always there will be plenty of time for questions.

Some of the stuff that will be covered in the session.
Ujjayi Pranayma ( the breathing with sound)
The Bandhas (activation of certain muscle groups)
The opening and closing mantras
The Vinyasas
The Postures and some variations
Headstand preparation

As always in my classes/workshops questions and comments by the participants will be actively encouraged.

If you are still on the fence see a really nice recommendation from one of my wonderful former students from Sweden 💛💙

I can not say enough great things about Lisa.

Lisa introduced me to Ashtanga Yoga and it really changed my life....In a good way. Lisa is an incredible yoga teacher. Her lovely personality radiates the classroom and she is a genuinely caring soul that wants the best for her students.
She balances professional coaching with empathy, attention to detail, encouragement and a great sense of humour. Lisa makes Yoga fun. She's simply fantastic.
Thank you so so much Lisa.❤Love you forever!! Anneli Åkersbergea
