Exhale Twist

Tuesday, September 17th

7:45pm-9:15pm

with Denisha Brekke

A Workshop to Demystify Twists and Binds

Twists and binds are exciting parts of yoga! But how to actually achieve them? What is the point? Twisting and binding detoxify our organs, our cells, and our minds. Twisting and binding are available in many standing and seated poses. Teachers often invite binds in poses we do often like parsvottanasana (extended side angle) but it might feel too rushed in public classes to try them. Many standing balance poses, like bird of paradise, must be achieved with a full bind. We will focus on this realm of yoga asana to start making them accessible in your regular yoga practice. 

This workshop is designed for all-levels. All yogis will learn more about the benefits of twists and binds, and for 90 minutes we will break them down, warm up, and flow through a practice with commentary. Advanced yogis will get a chance to go deeper.
