Spiraldance Breathwork Workshop with Tania Zuckerman
Sunday, November 16
1-3PM
Falmouth Studio
$40
For centuries, people have harnessed the rejuvenating power of the breath our vital life force to support healing, relaxation, and spiritual growth. Yet, stress and tension can limit our natural breathing patterns, affecting how we sleep, digest, feel, and connect.
When we restore ease and openness in our breath, we invite more freedom, energy, and clarity into our lives. Conscious breathing helps us integrate experiences, release stored tension, and reconnect with our body, mind, and spirit.
Through a facilitated supine Breathwork Journey supported by intuitive guidance and soulful music, you’ll explore the powerful, transformative effects of integrative breathwork.
Benefits: Energize and purify the body, release stagnant energy, integrate body-mind imbalances, expand awareness and clarity, improve respiratory function, and access feelings of peace, joy, and balance.
Bring a journal and a pen.
Advanced Backbends with Gretchen
Sunday, November 23
1 PM – 3 PM
Falmouth Studio
$30
Interested in playing more with backbends? Do you have a wheel pose but wonder, what's next? Join Gretchen for an Advanced Backbending workshop. For this 90 minute session we will get a chance to warm up all-over, legs, glutes, hip flexors, spine, shoulders and wrists, then explore variations and other spinal extension postures. There will be time to touch on inverted backbends, moving around the studio in a way that we normally can't in a regular class and using the wall as a giant prop! Gretchen's approach is light and fun, we are there to explore and play. Bring your sticky mat or rent one for $1, a water bottle and wear yoga clothes. For the fullest experience, this is best for practitioners with confidence with wheel posture (Urdhva Dhanurasana) and please, no acute injuries.
