the bandhas in asana, with doug keller, $85
saturday, april 5, 2-6 pm
Join area master yogi Doug Keller for a strong asana class directed toward developing more awareness of the bandhas in your body as you move from pose to pose. The focus of the workshop is to develop the use of the bandhas as keys to strength and alignment as you move from pose to pose.
Doug will first describe the actions and effects of each of the bandhas physically and energetically. The bandhas are simple yet powerful muscular actions in the area of the pelvic floor (mula), lower abdominals (uddiyana), head, neck and shoulders (jalandhara) — which align these key areas, providing optimal strength, support, protection to the joints, as well as freedom in both the supple physical movement of vinyasa and the subtleties of the breath. In the case of pranayama and meditation, the bandhas support greater and more extended periods of stillness and concentration. Some simple exercises will be introduced to support your practice of the bandhas as part of this introduction.
Then he’ll lead a vinyasa-based asana class that will incorporate the bandhas into the weave of breath and movement. The basic exercises for the bandhas will be incorporated into the flow. The original texts of hatha yoga cite the bandhas as being crucial to having a fruitful asana practice.
This workshop will help you examine the powerfully supportive qualities of these bandhas in your own body. The extended length of the workshop will allow time to end with a period of guided (seated) pranayama techniques and meditation which incorporate the actions of the bandhas. advanced beginners to intermediate students.
