Prana, Longevity, & the Embodiment of Space

We dedicate this summer’s Cape Cod practice to sustaining the life force by infusing the body with prana. Throughout all of our movements and meditations, we embody a feeling of light and space.

Spinal Longevity – Friday, July 19 | 2:00 – 5:00pm

As people age, the spine typically falls backward, especially in the lumbar and upper back. When the spine bows backward, the vitality in the body wanes. In this class, we do postures to help maintain the natural curvature of the spine. All movements support the musculature, nerves, discs and ligaments along the spinal shaft.

Prana the Breath of Life – Friday, July 19 | 6:00 – 8:00pm

The breath of life known as prana, animates every cell, every nerve and gland in the body. All yoga practices open the interior channels of the body so that prana can flow more freely. The flow of prana is synergistic with blood flow as blood oxygenates all tissues. In this class, we practice infusing the body in breath and blood in order to sustain health in all the cells of the body.

The Sacrum and Hip Joints – Saturday, July 20 | 10:00am – 1:00pm 

This class is a deep dive into the hip joints. We take a slow progression through the many angles of rotation in and around the hips to generate fluidity in the sacrum and pelvis. We will practice releasing the sacrum and low back in order to generate a stream-like flow of prana through the spine.

Yoga and the Embodiment of Space – Saturday, July 20 | 2:00 – 5:00pm

Space is the yogi’s primary medium. In yoga, we look to find space around the diaphragm, space around the nerve endings, space in the throat. We look to not only find space inside the body, but also space around the body and space in everything we do. How do we develop an aesthetic appreciation for space and learn to not fill it up with our wants and needs? How can we sense that space itself offers a feeling of the sublime? In this class we generate freedom of movement and a free flowing breath. In meditation, we cultivate a feeling of spacious delight in both heart and mind.
