Posture Focus

Picture
I am running beginners and improvers classes at the beautiful 14 Alva Street.  Each month we will have a special peak posture that we are going to be focusing on and finding new ways to explore and experiment with.  This means that throughout the month we will be looking at the areas of the body that we need to work on in terms of flexibility and strength to see how we can access the posture.  Spending a whole month focusing on one posture seems like a lot but there is a huge amount to learn in each yoga posture and in this way students can build up a bank of knowledge on it and see themselves progress as the month goes on.  Of course there will be different postures that we will be practicing in the lead up to our peak posture every week and lots of room to try new things.  This way we also get the chance to explore deeper in to things as well as broader and see what can be discovered afresh about the peak focus postures.  This quote says a lot to me about how I feel about working on yoga asana.  However, the top of the mountain (perfect posture) is not the goal in yoga and maybe it does not even exist, just your own expression right now!“Mountains should be climbed with as little effort as possible and without desire. The reality of your own nature should determine the speed. If you become restless, speed up. If you become winded, slow down. You climb the mountain in an equilibrium between restlessness and exhaustion.” 
― Robert M. Pirsig, Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance: An Inquiry Into Values
I hope to share some of the monthly focuses in this blog.  Please check back and see!
