Happy Thanksgiving and Fall Solstice.
This fall I’ll be teaching some workshops in addition to regular classes. Please come join me to breathe, stretch, ground, strengthen and deepen your practice.
Introduction to Iyengar Yoga Workshop
Saturday November 5th, 2.30 –4.30 pm at Green Room Yoga.
$30, or $25 if you register by October 22.
Contact Meghan to register at: meghangoodman@hotmail.com
In this workshop you will learn about the lineage of Iyengar yoga, and what makes it a unique and safe system. This short discussion will be followed by a sample class appropriate for all levels of yoga students. A great workshop to ask questions and work towards balance in your practice. I am currently deep in my studies to certify as an Iyengar yoga instructor. I will sit for my first assessment this winter and am excited to share with you the invaluable information I am learning in my program.

5:45-7:15pm Iyengar Level 1
Iyengar yoga is a systematic method of Hatha Yoga named after B.K.S. Iyengar of Pune, India, who is one of the foremost yoga masters in the world. The Iyengar method works on the principle of meditation in action. Practitioners concentrate closely on the movements in the yoga postures (asanas), bringing the body into balance by increasing mobility, stability, strength and alignment. At the same time, this intense concentration draws the attention inward, quieting and integrating mind and body. The hallmark of the Iyengar approach is the ability to adapt the poses to the needs and challenges of the individual student, making it appropriate for all ages and levels of fitness.
7:30-9:00pm Hatha Flow
This class in geared towards yoga students with some experience who would like to work on their strength, flexibility, inversions and alignment.
