Human Movement

Preparation is key for “sadhana,” our daily spiritual practice.

To achieve higher levels of yogic abilities in our practice, we must first do prerequisite practices so that obstacles for the spontaneous arising of concentration, meditation, and “samadhi” (a spiritual state of consciousness) can be eliminated. Thus, in the performance of asana, an understanding of all possible movements our joints can do must be learned.

In this workshop led by esteemed yoga master Glenn Black, we learn a systematic approach to understanding these movements and gain the ability to feel restrictions. Then, through remedial exercises, self-massage, dance, and playful movement, our bodies can release chronic holding patterns that asana can never overcome alone. The liberated body is then able to perform asana with ease, grace, and beauty.

Human Movement is for anyone experienced in yoga, athletics, dance, or martial arts.
