From Feet to Eyes: The Art of Better Balance On and Off the Mat May 18th - 19th | Times Vary
Good balance is dynamic and delightful. It’s not about mastery or being perfectly still like a statue. That’s what this weekend workshop is all about – being responsive, adaptive and nimble.
Which is how we “catch” ourselves when we trip or stumble. Join Trisha for a weekend full of balance skills and drills. We’ll break down the three main systems that control balance and learn how to improve each of them.
Then we’ll put them all together in a fun Flow yoga class. This workshop is ideal for teachers and anyone
who wants to improve their own balance on and off the yoga mat.Dates/Times:
Saturday, May 18th: 9:00 am – 2:00 pm
Sunday, May 19th: 9:00 am – 10:30 amRegistration is non transferable / non refundable.
