This occasional offering is a great opportunity to enter into the re-emerging teachings of Tantric
yoga philosophy and to go deeper into the innovative and transformational approach to hatha
yoga that is Anusara. Each session begins with a philosophy talk and is followed by practice to
embody the teachings. With emphasis on philosophical exploration and methodical alignment
practice, you will gain both theoretical and experiential knowledge that is heart-melting, mind-
blowing, and body-transforming. Gina is a teacher to sit close with - her bright and weighty
presence along with sensitive and penetrating guidance consistently invites her students into self-
discovery and profound breakthrough. This workshop series is great for teachers wishing to
deepen their knowledge base and for all sincere students. Make it a full day of practice with
Gina by attending the Anusara Advanced Group Practice. Dates and themes of each
Saturday Series will be posted as they are available.

February 18th – Awakened Alignment: Shoulders
Tantric yoga philosophy sees the body as Supreme Consciousness’ manifested form. Innate
to the body, then, is a deep matrix of order, infinitely intelligent, resplendent, and free, an
expression of that one Consciousness that permeates every level of our being. Anusara yoga’s
Universal Principles of Alignment reveal that matrix, whose potential for healing and unbounded
expression is limitless. Instead of imposing outer piecemeal alignment and emphasis on gross
body anatomy only, there are five dynamic and unitive biomechanical principles which resonate
on every level of awareness, revealing from increasing inner awareness that luminous
potentiality. As consciousness is ever-expanding, it follows that our understanding and
expression of our bodies should continue to expand. Questioning, then, many previously held
understandings in the techniques of yoga, Anusara has refined and illuminated many of the
commonly accepted and practiced alignment cues, to liberating and wondrous effect.
Want to practice on the cutting edge of yogic technology? Come explore awakened alignment
of the shoulders in Chatturanga Dandasana, Downward Facing Dog, Cobra/Upward Facing
Dog, and more. Experience healing and freedom in these most common poses as well as more
ease and continuity in vinyasa flow. If your shoulders, wrists, or neck are stuck or hurting, this
practice is especially for you. All levels welcome – for students and teachers alike. Some yoga
experience recommended.
