Partner Yoga Workshop!
led by Nicole Haagenson,
on Saturday, July 17th; 2:00-4:00pm

Yoga means union. This workshop is ideal for couples, family, and friends interested in exploring deeper levels of connection and intimacy through yoga.

Most importantly, it is FUN! We laugh together as we strengthen and stretch the body. Using gentle pressure, body weight, and skillful touch, we will work one-on-one to maximize our stretching and perfect our alignment in classical yoga postures. Working with a partner helps you to open your body more deeply than you could alone, for optimal benefits. Stretch not only your body, but also your communication skills.

In this invigorating workshop, you'll:
· Practice a series of doubles' yoga poses where you balance, counter-balance and co-create the posture
· Learn partner-assisted stretches, enabling you to stretch farther than you could on your own
· Create a wellness practice of poses to alleviate minor back, neck, shoulder and hip pain
· Develop strength and flexibility while deepening trust, communication and fun.

APPROPRIATE FOR ALL LEVELS.
NO YOGA EXPERIENCE IS NECESSARY.
NO PARTNER NECESSARY.
