Christie Parcigneau
Christie has been exploring yoga since 1999 and has been teaching since 2009. Her passion for yoga and wellness led her to leave her successful career as an executive in the federal government in 2013 to pursue her soul’s desire to be of service and teach full time.
Though she teaches a variety of styles of yoga, Christie specializes in functional mobility and therapeutic movement based on the body's bio-mechanics. This deep understanding of the intricate weavings of the anatomy allows her to support students in their practice by creating a sense of balance and well-being through personalized instruction even in group settings.
Description
This six-part series is designed to give participants an opportunity to explore yoga based on the foundation of the various poses. Each part starts with a basic introduction to the anatomy of the foundation (for example: sitting or standing in proper alignment), the bio-mechanics of the yoga poses, how to modify and adjust the poses based on the individual’s needs, and a short yoga practice at the end of each lesson to bring it all together.
This series is suitable for beginner yoga practitioners and those more experienced wishing to gain a deeper understanding of the anatomy of poses.
Cost is $175+tax for the entire series. It’s best to register for the entire series since the experiential practice at the end of each lesson will incorporate teachings from the previous sessions. If space permits, single session bookings will be accepted. If you are booking the entire series, please use your series pass to reserve a spot in each of the six classes.
PART 1 - SEATED POSES (January 21)
Learn the basic anatomy of an aligned sitting posture, how various seated positions impact the pelvis, spine and hips differently, and how to modify and adjust the seated position for postural alignment in various poses. Explore the poses with a seated yoga practice to bring all elements of the lesson together.
