YOGA FLOW one WORKSHOP

Sunday 5th October 2008 – 10 a.m.– 4 p.m.

Lutterworth Town Hall

This workshop is for those who have been practising yoga for at least 9 months. It is assumed that you know how to get in and out of the postures safely and correctly. It would be suitable if you have practiced before but maybe not for some time, as this workshop would give you the opportunity to ‘catch up’ with the intermediate level, Thursday class. This is a physically challenging, energizing and rewarding workshop which will work every muscle in the body through an intermediate-level sequence of poses in each of the major posture groups:-

STANDING - SEATED - KNEELING - PRONE - SUPINE

The day will finish with some uplifting chants and a rejuvenating and relaxing yoga nidra.
