During this 2-day program, you will learn techniques of yoga to improve your health in body, mind, and spirit.
You will discover the healing power of posture, movement, energy and breath focus. You will gain important self-assessment and therapeutic techniques, and you’ll work with program leaders Melody Hansen and Darshana Moore to go deeper into how to apply what you've learned in your daily practice.
You’ll leave with a yoga routine designed to help you take your next step toward increased health and well-being.
Class size is limited, so please register early.
