Hatha Yoga Classes for experienced students with Renata MahaJyoti

Each month we will focus on one part of the class and go deep into it. 

January Class - hatha flow... we will flow through Sun Salutations with variations.  Class will also cover seated and lying down positions, will focus on developing our awareness of forward and backward bendings, and also work on twists and lateral bending. This is a complete Hatha Class following the Sonia Sumar Method, so we will also have chanting, eye exercises, deep relaxation and breathing. 

February Class - how about those hips... In February we will work on poses that will help us feel the connection between our hips and pelvic floor. We will also work on poses that require hip open position with options for different flexibilities, so we can safely develop the awareness on how to join strength and flexibility in these yoga poses. It will be a balanced yoga routine, although with the focus on hips and pelvic floor. This is a complete Hatha Class following the Sonia Sumar Method, so we will also have chanting, eye exercises, deep relaxation and breathing. 

March Class - all about inversions... In this class, we will do a more simplified introductory routine, to make sure we work our spine in all directions, as well our body in all positions, but we will spend a little more time exploring inversions and variations.  This is a complete Hatha Class following the Sonia Sumar Method, so we will also have chanting, eye exercises, deep relaxation and breathing. 

I can't wait to share these morning practices with you!
