About the event

This a purely postural workshop - very practical and informal with plenty of opportunity to talk about poses and how you feel about them; then we work out a way for you to practice them that suits your body. 

Although we try to offer as much support as possible in classes in the moment, there isn't always opportunity for two-way discussion, or to try lots of different approaches, or to have hands on adjustment from the teacher.

This session will focus on 5-10 poses. We will discuss different ways to get into the pose, transition in and out of the pose and, how to use props to support yourself. We will get personal and explore different angles for different bodies - what is right for one person, might not be for another. When is it right to deeply release into the stretch to relieve stiffness, when is it right to hold back and build strength, what is right for hypermobility, does it matter if my knee isn't lined up over my ankle? 

There will be (optional) hands on adjustments and assists to help you feel into the body and maximise a pose. There will be chance to ask questions (I will try to answer them - not guaranteeing I can!).

The result will hopefully build confidence in your practice as well as giving you more opportunity to 'feel' the pose. This should alleviate feelings of 'am I doing this right', allowing you become more embodied in the feelings inside your body and less worried about how it looks. 

I thought it might be good to build this workshop collaboratively and ask you what poses you would like to cover? If you haven't seen this social media post about this you can always email your thoughts to hello@scarboroughyoga.space. Once we have a final list, I will post it below.
