This workshop is for any yoga practitioner with any level of experience who is interested in empowering their individual practice. The workshop will begin with a discussion on our two basic principles (Intra-Abdominal Pressure and Ground Force Reaction) that can be directly applied towards your individual practice and body patterns. Abby will weave together knowledge from over a decade of working with bodies as a massage therapist and yoga teacher to offer information that's practical, accessible, and applicable. Then, we'll move through a yoga practice where we'll put skill into action, apply that new knowledge as a diagnostic tool, and gain a direct experience of our unique bodies.
These practices will open the gate to our true yoga practice - the ability to be humble and open minded. The workshop will challenge your ego, show you the truth of your body, and give you the sweet opportunity to practice acceptance, humility, and kindness. Abby will guide students to work with inquiry and playfulness, so that each person makes aligned, mindful choices using the information received from these practices in a non-judgmental way. Each person will leave the workshop having learned easy-to-understand functional anatomy, with the tools and skillfulness to tailor your practice to your individual needs in the future. Expect to leave with a new knowledge of your unique and habitual body patterns, with tools that can be directly applied towards your individual movement practices, and feeling deeply relaxed and grounded.
