and strengthen while minimizing stress to the spine and
joints.
Functional Strength Training integrates core, stability
ball and weight training to enhance static and dynamic stability
and functionally tone and develop the body’s muscular
systems.

ball (Resist-A-Ball, Swiss Ball) to each session. Correct

style may even make you laugh…..and we all know laughter
is good for the soul.

Viniyoga....Gentle Restorative
Yoga
Based on the Viniyoga tradition of supported
and gentle postures, the integration of specific breathing
techniques is used to bring about individual healing. The
elements that make Viniyoga different from other styles of
yoga are the emphasis of linking breath and movement, and
the use of adaptations. Based on the teachings of Sri Krishnamacharya,
this workshop will give you an understanding of how Viniyoga
is different, its infinite possibilities for healing, and
how to incorporate it immediately into working with classes
and when working with specific individuals.
