October 5th - 11th
Aligning & Moving from your Core
This retreat features two workshops with JJ Gormley:
Aligning & Moving from your Core
Teacher Training: Philosophy
Please note: The Teacher Training is NOT limited to just teachers.
Discussions will be most beneficial to any student of yoga.
In the Weekend workshop you will learn to move from your core, to blossom into
yoga postures from your inner strength; to awaken not only your
internal alignment, but also your alignment with the Source. The
workshop will teach you to find greater strength. Anchored in your
core, you will also find an understanding, embracing, and celebration
of your unique needs.
In the Teacher Training, the focus will be on Yoga Philosophy. We will
study from
some of the ancient spiritual texts of yoga and play with
incorporating those ideas into our teaching.
While it is not necessary, please bring the following books if you
have a copy: The
Bhagavad Gita, The Mahab-harata and The Ramayana. Continuing
Education Credit certificates will be available.
About the Instructor:
JJ employs a gentle, non- judgmental teaching style that allows
students to be where
they are in any given yoga pose and encourages them to accept and
honor that place. JJ has a very diverse yoga background having studied
from many traditions since 1979, most recently the teachings of the
Desikachars (TKV and his son, Kausthub).
She has produced six yoga videos/DVDs, and a chanting CD which can be
purchased on sun and moon's website.
Who Should Attend
Any level of yoga student is welcome for this weekend. A perfect
weekend for the first time/beginning yoga student or more ongoing
student. Intermediate students will also find classes which will
provide just the right amount of challenge.
