Overall Therapeutic Approach
For 10 weeks, we will do Therapeutic Yoga for healing the feet & legs, hips, lower back/core strength, upper back, arms, neck & shoulders, as well as the mind & emotions. Each topic will be addressed for 2 weeks at a time, with each topic building on the last for a whole person/whole body, integrated approach.
The Yoga asana-s (Yoga postures) are breath coordinated with movement & alignment-based, with breathing, chanting, visualization, and restorative practices integrated into all classes.
You will be asked to provide a self-assessment & registration form before the series begins each term to clarify individual therapeutic needs (see attached document). Maggie will track changes and progress throughout the term. http://yogatherapyinternational.com/content/group-therapeutic-yoga
You are also encouraged to work with Maggie privately on Fridays & Saturdays, to develop a home practice to deepen your experience. http://yogatherapyinternational.com/private-yoga-therapy
