Custom workshops, retreats or special series offer dedicated time to experience a particular pose or practice in depth, including the more subtle aspects of asana, pranayama, and meditation. In the workshop format, we can play, move more attentively, and explore the rich layers of the body, breath, and mind as if these seemingly familiar things were unfamiliar. In doing so, we may discover new approaches and more about ourselves.
