Your Body In Yoga

Friending Your Yoga Practice

Who this is for

This workshop is appropriate for all levels.

Benefits

This comparative anatomy workshop will help you understand YOUR anatomy and possibly change the way you approach and practice yoga.
How often do you find yourself frustrated with the progress of your yoga practice?
