Weekend 1 includes physical practice, meditation, pranayama, and the beginning of our philosophy and lifestyle component. While section 1 tackles how yoga works physically, in section 2, we look at the mind. It includes ethics, the 8 limbs of yoga, karma and dharma, the overarching philosophy of yoga from the major books, and where it shows up in other religious, philosophical, and ethical systems around the world. This weekend will be a juicy mix of physical experiences, healthy practices, and discussion.

Weekend 3 includes physical practice, meditation, a wrap up of all we've learned so far about living as a yogi, and why yoga works to give us a happier, healthier life. We'll have time for some more specialty practices like the latest on working through trauma with yoga, or some of the more gentle yin/restorative/meditative practices. We'll have a rich, fulfilling workshop of self-discovery and assessment, so as you head off into the next part of your journey of life, you'll have all the tools and all the insights you need to carry with you.

Part 3 / Advanced Skills:
When You Work Yoga (spirit)
3 Advanced Skills Weekend Retreats will be scheduled in September - December, 2019
Friday 5:30 - 8:30 PM / Saturday 7:30 AM - 7:30 PM. /. Sunday 7:30 AM - 1:30 PM
The Advanced Skills Weekends are less fixed by agenda. Our team of trainers will be teaching advanced skills workshops for challenging poses, hands on adjustments, better sequencing, teaching mastery, advanced meditation, pranayama, and other yoga practices. But we'll also be inviting guest teachers from the areas of interest YOU (and your peers) specify on your wish list, and YOU (and your peers) will also teach a class or workshop in this segment. This makes each of the Part 3 weekends completely unique each year, and more like a yoga conference, with a wider variety of voices, wisdom, and expertise to experience. More detailed agendas will fall into place as we get closer, but the overall experience will leave you feeling much more experienced, confident, and skillful in all aspects of living and teaching yoga.

Although we've been practicing poses, meditation, and pranayama all along, this weekend will take us deeper.
