EVENTS

Join Quincy Yoga & Massage for a 2-part workshop series where you can learn, practice, and attempt: crow, side crow, scissors, twisting scissors, flying pigeon, eight angle pose, grasshopper, firefly, and handstand.

In each session, we will build arm-balances from the ground up by exploring and developing an understanding of core strength, muscle engagement, alignment and flexibility so you can safely enter and exit the poses.

More advanced students will love refining their practice with this workshop, while beginning students will learn to deepen into their balancing practice in a safe, supported and sustainable way. Experience Level: All Levels Welcome, Prior Yoga Experience is Encouraged

Arm balances are touted as a lighthearted way to help us change our perspective and face our fears. No doubt a useful skill both on and off the yoga mat!

Cost: $40 for both weeks (or $25 for only 1 week)
Dates: Saturday April 27 and Saturday May 4
Time: 12:00-2:00 PM

This workshop is designed for first time yogis, like Yoga 101. Learn the fundamentals of yoga in a group where everyone is new. You can consider it a prerequisite to your first group yoga class (like Yoga Basics or All Levels Vinyasa class).

Throughout this class we will introduce you to:

• The Quincy Yoga & Massage studio
• You’ll get a brief history and overview of yoga
• Overview of different props often used in the classroom
• You’ll be shown common uses for yoga props to help avoid injury and keep body alignment
• You will be introduced to common standing poses including Warrior I and Warrior II
• Instruction on the basic sequence of postures in yoga.
• You will practice the entire Sun Salutations sequence

If you have no idea what those bullet points mean, this is the class for you!

Getting ready for this workshop, here’s what you should bring:

• A yoga mat. If you do not have one, you can rent one for $2 at the studio.
• If you sweat a lot, bring a towel and some water.
• Wear comfortable clothes that you can move in but that also allows your teacher to see your alignment.
