I take particular care to be clear when giving instructions, so that the student can practice with confidence in any setting, whatever level they are at.

Incorporating SATYA (sensory awareness training for yoga attunement) at the beginning of each session teases out tension from the fascia and the tissues, cultivating a greater sense of presence in the classical postures. Via pulsatory movements guided by the breath, the body reconnects with its natural rhythms. SATYA work is practiced on the floor to enhance somatic awareness.

In class, the body is aligned to maximize the flow of energy. Postures are held long enough to allow space in which to go deeper. Classes are also dynamic and energizing, and the inner body is engaged to cultivate health. Working in this way leads to a greater release of tension. 

These sessions focus on the connection between breath and movement. The exercises are practiced in a state of conscious awareness, in order to promote suppleness in the joints. One becomes familiar with the various body parts and their processes. There is no undue strain in the postures and we cultivate a flow that is conducive to relaxation and overall happiness and balance in the body.
