Gestures Toward Practice


Gestures Toward Practice

What gestures move you closer to practice? How does a practice move you closer to presence? 

What are yoga poses? What is their purpose?  

One possible answer for these questions is that yoga postures are gestures we make toward practice, and practice is a move toward presence. 

This invites us to consider gestures as actions instead of things. Does your relationship with yoga change when you consider these connections? 

I invite you to join us for a four-week series that explores yoga postures as gestures toward presence. 

What to expect: 

  • Forms that are large and dynamic (sometimes simple, occasionally complex)

  • Movements and shapes that are subtle and nuanced

  • Attention to your breath

  • Invitations to explore what is familiar and what is unfamiliar


What to Expect

  • This series is appropriate for all levels and will include ideas to adapt your practice in pace and intensity.

  • Each session is streamed live on Zoom and is recorded for you to access indefinitely
