It’s All in the Legs – Online Masterclass with Aparajita Ghose
An exploration on how the legs affect all the categories of asanas
Saturday March 27
12:00-2:00pm
AED160
Guruji BKS Iyengar said that we must learn to stand on our feet before we try to stand on our head. This online workshops will explore;
– How using the legs correctly can affect all categories of asana, standing, twists, forward and back-bends and inversions.
– Often due to other activities including sports our legs develop in ways which can affect the rest of the body causing hip or knee pain. We will learn how to practise in order to create balance and avoid injury, which will affect other activities.
– How working the legs and keeping them strong also benefits us as we age.
– The legs energetically connect to the base of the spine. When we strengthen the roots we feel more grounded.
Open to all yoga practitioners. Online via zoom.
