There is a really solid reason most yoga sequences start with Samastithi (equal pose) or Tadasana (Mountain Pose). These poses help us find equilibrium in our posture, and set the rest of our practice up for success with attention to our roots.
And speaking of roots, did you know that 70% of the brain information about movement comes from our feet?! With this said, focus on the feet puts us in step with our nervous system and the world around us.
In this workshop we’ll explore all of the wonders of the feet through asana, movement awareness, somatic experience, self-massage, and deep yogic rest. And as it is Solstice, the official beginning of our fiery summer season- there will be special emphasize on both welcoming the new season and ways to cool, calm, and soothe- from the ground up!
As desert dwellers, this will be a great place to land on the brightest day of the year.
