embodied magic
3 day iyengar yoga immersion with avery kalapa
Alignment-based asana is somatic alchemy. Through compassionate, skillful practice, we can break the spell of old patterns in our body, nervous system, mind, and senses of perception that keep us stuck in survival mode, exhaustion, overwhelm.
Stability and decompression are 2 keys to functional embodiment that can empower you to re-organize your body, and through that, how consciousness moves through your being. Come discover new possibilities and deepen your understanding of yoga’s “practical magic” as it transforms how you feel, create, relate, and show up for this precious life.
Join us for this special opportunity to study with visiting guest teacher Avery Kalapa: a weekend of deep, joyful Iyengar Yoga sadhana! We’ll explore affirming, inspiring yoga asana, pranayama, philosophy, and deep relaxation as tools for integration and rejuvenation. This weekend features a wonderful blend of ingredients: we’ll geek out on cool anatomy and alignment, play and laugh, explore strong, rigorous practice, experience spacious spiritual expansion, and align our inner work with collective liberation, as we rise to meet this moment with courage, compassion, and community.
This brave, inclusive space cherishes diversity and warmly welcomes all, especially those who have been historically excluded from wellness. This weekend will re-juice your practice, your resilience, and your love of life!
