Physio Yoga with Sarah Court
Four Sundays in July, 10, 17, 24, 31, 1-2:30pm (PST)
In-Studio & Livestream
This month-long program develops movement essentials for your body’s overall well-being, with a different focus each week to maximize fundamental movement skills and tease out your personal needs and weak areas. Take the full month of classes for a well-rounded experience, or pick and choose where you feel you need it the most.
Week 1, July 10, Strength:
Use it or lose it can refer to a lot of things, but your physical strength is top of the list. Stave off your body’s declining strength (I’m not exaggerating when I tell you that strength decreases begin in your 20s-30s) using just your bodyweight to learn fundamental strength moves that carry over into your yoga practice and your life.
Week 2, July 17, Mobility:
What’s the difference between mobility and flexibility? There are lots of answers, but mine is this: mobility is useful flexibility, that requires both range of motion and strength to bring yourself into a position (versus wedging yourself). Learn what the difference feels like in practice, and acquire some useful mobility techniques to support your yoga practice and your daily life movements.
Week 3, July 24, Balance:
Yes, you can do Crow pose, and you’re working on your headstand. But real-life balance skills require quick reaction times and the ability to catch yourself in any position (have you ever tripped on something and landed in Tree pose? Me neither). Balance practice is actually falling practice – learning how to catch yourself before the fall happens! We’ll explore different strategies and techniques that fortify your inherent balance skills.
Week 4, July 31, Flow:
In which we combine everything we’ve learned about strength, mobility and balance, and turn it into a playful movement exploration. This ain’t your mama’s vinyasa class! Reconnect with the fun of movement as a full-bodied expression of yourself. You’ll leave feeling energized and motivated to keep your lifetime commitment to your body’s well-being.
Following the workshop, you’ll receive a link to the recording for 15 days, so you can take the class as many times as you want!
