11am-1pm / 2-4.30pm
The Intermediate Series (Second Series) of Ashtanga yoga is a demanding yet compelling practice involving challenging postures.
In this workshop Rose Ann will share her experience, knowledge and passion to help you get the most out of your Intermediate practice:
Learn how to build on the foundations you’ve created in Primary Series;
Look at what each posture involves and how to work towards achieving it;
Harness the breath and the correct vinyasa to achieve more.
You’ll focus on the three fundamental areas of the physical postures within Intermediate Series:
Backbends;
Leg-behind-head postures;
Arm balances.
Gill Hasson writes in her book the Mindfulness Pocketbook:
‘Being non-judgemental means that rather than evaluate what is happening, rather than see something as ‘good’ or ‘bad’, ‘right’ or ‘wrong’, you just experience or observe it.’
This is the mindset to take with your practice when you join us for this workshop. Your mat is a judgement free zone so allow yourself to be in the moment.
Workshop Cost £55
