Using gentle pressure, body weight, and skillful touch, we will work one on one to maximize our stretching and perfect our alignment in traditional hatha and peak yoga postures.

Working with a partner helps you to open your body more deeply than you could alone, for optimal benefits.

In this invigorating workshop, you’ll:
• Practice a series of doubles yoga poses where you balance, counter-balance and co-create the posture
• Learn partner-assisted stretches, enabling you to stretch farther than you could on your own

APPROPRIATE FOR ALL LEVELS. NO YOGA EXPERIENCE IS NECESSARY! Please bring a yoga mat, towel and bottle of water.
