As humans in today's world we are regularly bombarded with stimulii, expectations, and a perceived sense of control in our lives, jobs, and relationships that can feel daunting at best and debilitating at worst. The practices of improv and yoga both offer frameworks, philosophies, and practices for finding the balance between effort and surrender; for examining our own actions, responses, and patterns; for making mistakes cheerfully; and for making mindful choices for how we want to move through the world - with intention, with heart, and with humor.
In this 4-week class, we'll move through yoga asana (physical poses) and improv exercises that embody those concepts. We'll also dive a bit deeper into the broader practices of yoga beyond the physical poses to find the alignment of yogic philosophy and improvisational principles.
How can we integrate these games and frames to help us be more present, mindful, kind, attentive, and forgiving?
Open to all levels and abilities of yoga experience - from total beginner to regular practitioner.
