What I am teaching at Yoga Day - Sydney
Salute to the Four Directions
connecting to your inner self
This sequence from Dru yoga, introduces the principle of moving with comfort, ease and soft joints, working on all layers of being to connect with the still point within. Four Directions, leaves us feeling calm in our body, mind and emotions. The addition of affirmation and colour for each direction and expansive prana connects us with earth and sky. A powerful class when practiced with full awareness, we open with activations, release blocked energy and close with relaxation and assimilation.
