Yoga at CHOSUN "Dynamics and Dimension"

"Dynamics and Dimension"

One of the gifts that yoga brings us is learning how to work with our bodies in a dynamic way. But what does that mean? The other word most closely associated with dynamic is energetic. But that word alone does not tell the story. It is the quality of the energy and how it is used that offers us a path toward positive change. By learning how to access our core, grounding, and then distributing the energy in a deliberate and direct way, we become conscious of our body's dimensions. In our standing class this week, we will test this vital principle in the posture, Utkatasana or chair pose. 

join us and move dynamically!

Yoga at CHOSUN "Hold that Pose"

September 16, 2015 Chosun Taekwondo Academy & Hatha Yoga Center 62 Main St. Warwick NY   www.chosuntkd.com

"Hold That Pose" I like to tell my yoga students about one of my first yoga classes and the pose that did it for me! Seated on the floor, the instructor asked us to bring our legs together and extend  them forward making a right angle with the torso using our arms for support at our sides.  This common yoga posture is Dandasana or staff pose. At first I thought, "This is easy... after all I have been dancing and exercising all my life..." Well, after a few moments, my ego balloon burst and all I could think of was "when is she going to tell us to stop!" Holding any yoga pose is not easy but a valuable experience. It is here that you confront yourself, train your body and mind to stay present and cultivate compassion and mindfulness. These are the intangibles that with consistent practice we carry forward in our everyday lives. Join us to find strength in stillness...

YOGA at CHOSUN "The Third Dimension"

Chosun Taekwondo Academy & Hatha Yoga Center 62 Main St. Warwick NY www.chosuntkd.com

"The Third Dimension" One of the most popular poses in a yoga practice is Adho Mukha Svanasana or downward-facing dog and it gets its name from the position of a dog's back when it is stretching. It is an elongation of the spine by stretching in two directions. This technique, used in many yoga postures, is accomplished by moving the torso only in a linear plane.  On the other hand, the cat back or curved spine moves us into the third dimension as the spine makes an enclosure.  By rounding the spine and drawing up the strong abdominal muscles, we envelope ourselves and tap into the depth of our physical power. Join us and find your curve...

YOGA @ CHOSUN "Honoring Your Edge"

"Honoring your Edge" Whenever we stretch toward something just out of our reach whether in yoga class or in our own life experience we face our limits. When executing a yoga pose this is sometimes called "the edge." This week, we will be seated for an exploration of deep stretches. By "holding the pose" in an asana like Parivrtta Janu Sirsasana or Revolved Head-to-Knee Pose, we are challenged to meet our "edge" and stay tuned in. This is the process that leads to progress and transformation. Join us and stretch your limits...
