Body Mind Breath - The Art of Movement Course with Amber Spear

12 Wednesdays 18:30-20:00 - April 7, 14, 21, 28, May 5, 12, 19, 26, June 2, 9, 16, 23

This is not a classical Yoga course.

Classically derived from movement sequences and breathing techniques originating from the core we will explore an invaluable component of your body mind practice. Every muscle in your body seeks a desired sequence of functioning for optimal strength, flexibility and balance within any given movement. When the muscles perform incorrectly due to poor posture or repetition of incorrect movement, over use, tightness, antagonistic weaknesses and even injury can occur.

By reconnecting with the deepest core musculature surrounding our super-highway message centre the spine; we regenerate all movements from there thus building a stronger, leaner and more flexible body infused with a state of grace that will quickly filter throughout your every day life both on and off the Yoga mat.

She presents all of these amazing feats as nothing but new ways by which she learned how to understand and overcome her deepest fears...
