Wanderlust Stratton 2019

This immersion will deepen your pose knowledge, applied anatomy and kinesiology, sequencing strategies and expand your practice of back bending postures. This day long immersion is composed of a morning and an afternoon session, with a lunch break from 11:30 to 1:30 to renourish.

The first 45 minutes is dedicated to Noah's signature approach to deconstructing poses and analyzing what is occurring at the anatomical level; joints, muscular actions, difficulties, misalignments and necessary key actions. The remainder of the session (2+ hours) is asana based to embody the "theory" in an intermediate/advanced backbend workshop focusing on postures and actions that open the front chain of the body and strengthen the back chain. Through an in depth exploration of the balance of strength and mobility required in each body region, we will work intelligently to move safely through fundamental backbends into intermediate backbends; such as Urdhva Dhanurasana, Laghu Vajrasana, Kapotasana, Dwi Pada Viparita Dandasana. Bring a notebook, yoga props (two blocks, a blanket and a strap) and come ready to learn, work hard and have fun.
