Our organs are an often neglected part of our understanding about how to move with ease, particularly in yoga.
Our organ provide the energy and nourishment for movement. Often problems with injuries can be traced back to internal organs which have become depleted and are unable to support the movements.

When there is organ support for movement, there is a sense of connection to the interiour of our body. This can provide a sense of softness and calm in the asanas and even the most simple of actions revitalize our bodies.

We’ll be taking those ideas into exploring our natural ability to move with organ support to see how that can expand our life experience. We will take a look to see how simple self-help can help maintain and improve the health of our organ systems.

We will be doing some simple vinyasas (flowing sequences) and asana as part of the class.

Our spines and our breath are intertwined. Often the first sign of problems in our spines is the lack natural breath movement in part of the spine. Just getting the breath moving in the spine can offer us a chance to get in touch with our natural strength and flexibility without having to do complex or difficult asana. It also offers us a way of establishing a perceptual baseline, a neutral starting place in our yogic adventures of movement, meditation and stretching.

When the breath is able to move freely in the spine, there is a natural connection with the earth which allows weight moving into our feet to rebound freely through the spine, creating length and ease in movement.

We’ll be taking those ideas into exploring our natural ability to flex,extend, side bend and rotate our spine to see how that can expand our life experience. We will take a look to see how simple self-help can help maintain and improve the health of this essential centre in our bodies.
