Balancing is a form of meditation. In this workshop you will learn the three ways the brain helps our body to find balance and how to apply them to your Yoga practice. Often the most challenging category of postures in Yoga, efforts to balance can lead to frustration and disappointment. Join us in learning the anatomy of balancing and find improvement in just one session. We will begin with a lecture and discussion on the anatomy of balance and common mistakes made in Yoga before applying the information to a complete asana practice. All levels welcome.

​
