Wednesdays: Jan. 6, 13, 20, and 27

Start the year with Yoga! Advance and deepen your personal Hatha Yoga practice with this 4-week series guided by senior Integral Yoga teacher, Satya Greenstone.

Each workshop session will focus on different aspects of your Hatha Yoga practice: backbends, forward bends, inversions, twists, standing poses, Surya Namaskar (sun salutation), pranayama, and much more. Instructions and details for sequencing, alignment, variations, and modifications for individual needs will be clearly explained and practiced. Guidance for safely adding variety, challenge, and depth to your practice will inspire and build confidence in you. The weekly classes and group practice will refresh and motivate your personal home practice.

This online workshop includes:

• Essential daily practices
• Important detox poses
• Sequential steps for accomplishing challenging poses
• Deeper practices of Hatha Yoga: pranayama, Yoga Nidra, kriyas
• Guidelines, benefits, and necessity of developing a core practice
• Opportunities for personal guidance

Each week a video practice class will be available for your daily practice and review.

Live sessions with Satya on Wednesdays from 9 am–12 pm ET.

Testimonials

Satya Greenstone is the most knowledgeable senior teacher in the Integral Style of Yoga. Her presentations are thoughtful and filled with the spirit of Gurudev. She knows how to offer her knowledge through kind and compassionate teachings that make everything about the program reachable for any level student. — Madhuri Lavender

Satya is always the consummate presenter. She is knowledgeable, steeped in the Integral Yoga Hatha tradition, and lives her practice. She is patient, kind, accessible, and funny, yet serious about the importance of the practice of Yoga to develop and maintain a healthy body, sound mind, and peaceful spirit. I have taken many trainings with Satya, and she never fails to maintain high standards for the practice delivered in a compassionate spirit. — Ann "Daya" Simas Schoenacher

Satya is a wonderful and knowledgeable teacher who will tend to everyone in the program. She will answer everyone's questions, concerns, and validate comments. She makes sure that everyone is comfortable and encourages that throughout the program, to tune in and to focus inward, to use enough effort and challenge but to be mindful. I would seriously recommend it to people who suffer from osteoporosis, osteopenia, and instructors working with that population and for their overall knowledge. She is friendly, has a sense of humor and will share what she knows as a Yoga teacher, and as she said, "I am not a doctor, a nutritionist, a scientist, but a Yoga instructor and will share what I know.” — Myrena (Mridani) Sint Jago-Sherrod
