Inverness Workshops in March 2024
She is based in New York but we are delighted she is coming to Scotland and she will be teaching a series of Workshops with Yoga Inverness. These workshops are taking place 1st to 3rd March and there is a hybrid option with online attendance also available.
Friday 1st March– the standing poses build strength and endurance, and we gain vitality.
6-8pm (GMT) Intermediate, experienced, teachers and teacher trainees.
Developing Sensitivity in Asana: tuning into bones, joints, muscles and skin – the standing poses build strength and endurance and we gain vitality. They can also, if we work with awareness, help us develop an understanding of the skin, the largest of sense. It is when the skin is aligned with the organs of action – arms, legs and spine – that we find ourselves most at ease.
Saturday 2nd March – using a variety of Asanas, Bobby will take through the various phases of a woman’s life.
10am – 4:30pm (GMT) General level
Yoga for a Woman’s Life – using a wide range of yoga poses, Bobby will take through the various phases of a woman’s life, showing how to adapt our practice according to our age. Come prepared to be 5 year’s old! Can you remember yourself as a teenager? Even if you have never been pregnant, experience it now with some yoga for pregnancy poses. Postpartum? We will practice as if you had just given birth. Are you under the impression that menopause will never happen? Get a taste of a menopause practice with some carefully selected poses and the same with post-menopause. Practice being elderly – it’s not so bad – with some of the poses Guruji did in his later years.
Sunday 3rd March– active forward bends, towards Mulabandhasana.
9:30am – 3:30pm (GMT) General level
Active Forward Bends – these forward bends are energizing, bring relief from anxiety and create much space in the lumbar spine.
Towards Mulabhandasana – “a posture where the body, from the anus to the navel, is contracted and lifted up and toward the spine”, BKS Iyengar: Light on Life. Mulabhandasana mobilizes the hips, ankles, knees and toes.
All sessions are available to attend in-person or online.
