Chandra Namaskara Yoga Masterclass: The Gifts of the Moon

This is an opportunity to take a deeper dive into the experience of our Yin Nature with the beautiful practice of Chandra Namaskar Moon Salutations.  

 

This August waxing moon is a perfect time to embrace Chandra Namaskar.  The practice offers embodiment of the powerful Yin qualities of our nature that are experienced in the 14 phases of the moon.  The class will offer many levels of practice that each person can deepen into, with stability, ease and enjoyment.  

The Master Class will begin with asana posture practice that will prepare the body to unfold the beauty of each of the phases of the Chandra Namaskar practice.  Each round of the practice will reveal deeper levels of ourselves and the practice including the powerful mantras which express each the more subtle qualities of each phase externally and within ourselves.  The class will complete with Pranayama and Meditation practices which will deepen our connection to the gifts of our Intuitive yin nature.

Date: 24 August (at the start of the waxing phase of the moon)

Join us for a unique and powerful Masterclass that invites you to explore the serene, intuitive, and nurturing aspects of your self through the graceful flow of Chandra Namaskar  Moon Salutations.
