This will be our fourth workshop here in York with Joey, here’s what to expect…
Morning Mysore classes;
In the Mysore-style class, students have the opportunity to develop their concentration as a tool for experiencing glimpses of silence, each moment of silence allowing our identification with a limited sense of self to soften and resulting in a grounded, expansiveness.
Each student practices at their own pace, led by and anchored in their own smooth breathing rhythm, following the Ashtanga sequence as they have been taught, up to place where they have instructed by a teacher.
As the teacher is not required to stand at the front and provide instruction to all students simultaneously, they are free to help each student individually, in a quiet, introspective atmosphere, giving both verbal and physical adjustments to guide students towards a balance between effort and ease in each pose, and to provide clarity around key actions and alignment in the pose.
We ask that students have a pretty confident grasp of most of the first half of the Ashtanga Primary series, in order to be able to practice independently. This is to enable Joey to try and give an equal level of time and input to each student.
Saturday afternoon class;
Saturday afternoon will be a dynamic alignment-based workshop. The focus will be learning
and refining key actions in a key group of standing poses. You’ll gain a deeper understanding of the mechanics of individual poses and of categories of poses, allowing you to apply these
guidelines in a much wider variety of poses than those you practice within this class. As you
progress to more challenging poses, this learning will empower you to work more
intelligently and effectively.
Sunday afternoon class;
Restorative session. Leaning towards a mood of ease. All physical
effort is relinquished, the body is encouraged to rest and passively release tension in a
series of supported poses. Subtlety of awareness is possible when we leave aside intense
sensations. The mood of the class is introspective and although many of the poses are
deceptively gentle, they have the potential to create a profound shift in your inner state.
