For curious yogis + inspired teachers!

Join Senior Teacher & Teacher Trainer, Lisa Giordano for an afternoon of movement, exploration, and hands-on discovery. These adjustment sessions are all about connection, confidence, and the magic of assists.


OPTIONS TO JOIN:

Yoga Pose Playshop Open to All

12:30 – 2:00pm | Alignment Tune-Up

Delve into Safe Assists for students to find a connection to the ground in seated poses and forward folds like Dandasana, Paschimottanasana, Upavistha Konasana.

Learn how subtle shifts in alignment can transform balance, stability, and ease throughout the body. Explore how grounding through the sit bones and lengthening through the spine can create space, release tension, and invite a deeper sense of calm in your practice.

These assists include: Grounding the student’s pelvis, suggesting different ways to create a deeper hip hinge when folding , offer gentle traction and spinal extension, stabilize bent-knee poses, use directional touch, support “breathing in the pose” rather than “doing” the pose.

Each student will get the chance to practice and receive individualized adjustments that bring more freedom, balance, and clarity into your body.
