Participants will learn to appreciate the value of yoga support items in habitual asanas and also use them to evolve into more challenging postures. This course is appropriate for YTT 200 students.

Exercise As Fun and Experimental Tuition: $30

Another way we will make exercise fun is by using tools such as bands, elevation training and kettle bells. How I incorporate variety, fun and experimentation in exercise is the reason clients tell me that they love training with me.
