“A PAIN IN THE NECK”

If you have periodic or chronic neck pain, you know why “a pain in the neck” has become a metaphor for unpleasantness, discomfort and stress. If you want to be pro-active in minimizing your neck pain, this workshop is for you.  You will learn basic anatomy and function of your neck, useful and practical strategies, exercises and self-care methods to move towards a pain free neck.

Teaching Yoga to Special Populations

Teaching special populations such as seniors, athletes, overweight
people or pregnant women can be daunting to new and seasoned teachers
alike. This weekend will focus on variations and modifications for
level 1 asanas along with the proper and safe use of props.  Ethics and
the business of yoga will also be topics this weekend.  This weekend
teacher training is part of a larger teacher training program at Golden
Heart Yoga.  For more information on the program, or on taking this
weekend training, please contact Golden Heart Yoga.

NEW! HIPS & HAMSTRINGS II

Many students who have experienced Linda's Hips and Hamstrings Workshop have asked for a continuing session.... and here it is!
The flexibility of your hips and legs depends in part on releasing chronic muscle tightness. Through a combination of challenging work, release techniques, and methods to achieve optimal alignment, you will develop flexibility in these key areas, opening the hips and lengthening the hamstrings. We will work deeper into the hip openers and hamstring stretches in this II version of the popular workshop. Some basic level yoga training is helpful, but not necessary. All are welcome.

YOGA CLOSE TO THE EARTH

Seated and prone postures bring our center of gravity close to the earth and have a calming, steadying effect. Explore prone and seated poses, forward bends and twists, and a few standing flows from the ground up.
