When we look in the mirror every morning, what are we seeing? The skin, muscles, shapes and contours that we identify as “us” represent only the superficial layer of our anatomy. The intent of this two day intensive is to demonstrate how an experience of the deepest structures of our body can provide support, initiate movement and promote healing. Since the process of breathing is at the functional core of any mind-body practice, the anatomy of the breath from a yogic perspective will be a key focus.

Topics covered will include the basic anatomy of breathing, the mechanics of spinal movement, coordinating the three diaphragms (bandhas), and how to access, stretch and strengthen the key structures of the breathing body. We will utilize a unique blend of visual, tactile and verbal processes to present the anatomical information, and asana sequences specifically designed to create a deepened connection to our “inner bodies” through yoga practice.
