Yamuna Body Rolling
|
|
Named after its inventor, Yamuna Zake, Yamuna Body Rolling is a unique system providing
health, fitness and massage-all rolled into one.YBR
reeducates muscles and stimulates bones creating positive and permanent
changes in the body. Lying on the ball, you literally roll your body
out almost like dough, stretching and elongating your muscles. The YBR
routines follow specific sequences that match the body's own logic and
order. Starting where each muscle begins at its origin, you roll toward
where it attaches to its point of insertion. In the Introductory Workshop on 11/7 you w ill learn how to use the Yamuna Body Rolling balls to work specific muscles in detail, creating suppleness in tight areas and optimizing your range of motion. Best of all, you'll know how to practice these techniques on your own. A second workshop will be held on December 5 to take the practice deeper and explore other areas of the body. Instructor Nathalie Chanut is the only Yamuna Body Rolling Instructor in the area - aren't we lucky she's here?Visit Nathalie's studio website to learn more by clicking here.Workshop I "Introduction" 11/7, 3-6

Abundance this winter holiday season begins from within. This workshop is designed to raise your pranic vibration! We will move through a specific purification vinyasa to stimulate circulation
and lymphatic flow. We'll invigorate the subtle body while stimulating the organs of detoxification and create intelligent mobility to authentically express our fullest abundance in asana. Workshop includes a neti pot demonstration, and the use of Nasyo oil for a healthy respiratory tract will be offered. If you've never tried a neti pot this demonstration will introduce you to the holistic benefits of shuddikriya: cleansing the nasal pathway from nostrils to throat. We'll conclude with a deeply healing guided meditation. This workshop is a must for those who want to celebrate the winter season in radiant health and abundance!Neti pots and salt will be available for purchase. Please join us Saturday Nov 14, 3:00pm to 5:00pm.Price: $25 in advance $30 day of workshop
