2023 Workshops for Continuing Education Credit at Yoga 108 in Independence
Need to Know Your Neck: Neck Pain, Headaches, Text Neck, and Other Challenges for Our Cervical Spine May 7, 2023 from 12:30 – 3:30 p.m. Our cervical spine holds up our weighty head (averaging about 11 pounds). In some cultures, it’s normal to see women carrying 40-pound cans of water for miles on top of their skulls without pain. So what are we doing wrong? In this workshop, we’ll explore the anatomy of the neck and learn how we can both release and strengthen our necks in a society that’s wired to our computers and our phones. This workshop offers 3 Continuing Education credits with Yoga Alliance. Register here. Helping the Bendy Yogi: The Challenges of Hypermobility and Ways to Promote Stability and Strength in Your Yoga Classes November 12, 2023 from 12:30 – 3:30 p.m. The definition of a hypermobile body is one with an excessive range of motion in four or more joints. Current research states that this includes 20 percent of the population. In yoga, we’ve often fetishized the bendy body in classes and social media posts but the damage to tissues is real. In this workshop, we’ll explore the anatomy of hypermobility and provide tools for teachers to assist students to develop their sensory intuition as well as strength to promote wellbeing instead of pain in our yoga practice. This workshop offers 3 Continuing Education credits with Yoga Alliance. Register here. |

Move, Sit, Write, Read: An Embodied Writing Workshop (on Zoom)
Have you wanted to try your hand at writing but your inner critic is holding you back? Join Anne for a 90-minute workshop where we will connect embodied practice with writing. We’ll start with gentle movement followed by a short meditation; then we’ll write for 15 minutes in response to a prompt, and, if you choose, read what we’ve written. We won’t comment on each other’s writing; we’ll simply listen. Email Anne for information or to register. Cost is $15. Payment through PayPal, Venmo, Chase Zelle or by check to Anne (contact her for the address). |
