Wisdom Warriors™
Thursday July 25, 2024 8:00am - 12:00pm EDT
By the time (or even before) we reach mid-life, most of us will have some physical issues that can feel like real limitations. This can cause us to feel disheartened or discouraged about our bodies and pull back from our yoga practice or other exercise programs.

Now 65 years of age, Desirée has been refining her practice and teaching since the late 1980’s. She has learned from both her own and her students' experiences how to dynamically practice yoga in a way that respects limitations while continuing to explore potential.

What we need are equal parts of willingness and curiosity. Desirée continues her studies with Physical Therapists and other movement professionals in order to stay informed so she can help students work skillfully with whatever they have going on at the moment.

Growing older gracefully is definitely not for sissies as the body and mind are deeply interconnected. Come and find out how Wisdom Warriors play the Game of Life. Bring a yoga strap and a block.

Radical Movement ~ Radical Joy for Uncertain Times ~ An Aerial Yoga Experience
Thursday July 25, 2024 1:00pm - 5:00pm EDT
This immersion is for those that want an intimate experience with the aerial hammock as well as those that have an interest in meeting their next best friend (Hammock and/or Human). If you want to learn about yourself and how you move in the world this is the place for you. If aerial yoga is the movement practice you want to know more about, join me.

What if your life and all Earth life depends on the way you move physically, emotionally, socially, and spiritually? What if choosing to become Somatically and Soul aware is the greatest gift you can give yourself and our planet? What if your life matters more than you can imagine, in these uncertain times?

At this moment within our ecological and cultural time, finding beauty and joy can be elusive. What type of practice, and in this case movement, will make a difference during times of challenge and times of peace? Join me for some play and some reflection.

This immersion into Radical Movement (your unique authentic movement) and Radical Joy (your enduring radiance) begins to explore these questions and more as we move together. When you move we move. When you move we may begin to discover together, what type of movement is possible in and out of the aerial yoga hammock.

The aerial hammock primes your awareness through somatic movement in play, heart openness, twisting, inverting perception, and cocoon-like holding. Guided aerial yoga postures and other prompts will bring awareness to the ways your unique authentic movement informs the choices you make at a personal level, within your community, and in the world at large.

Pairing the aerial hammock with your unique and authentic movement is sure to reveal the gifts we all need in uncertain times. Pairing hammock movement with reflection and imagination exercises we will write, draw, and express the gifts we all need in uncertain times. While we may walk away from this immersion with more questions than answers, consider becoming a seed that renews and rejoices in a life that matters and in lives that matter. Come ready to move, to explore, to be in community.

Are you the one that will attend?
Building partnership happens as we move together.
Join me in building personal awareness.
Join me in building community.
If community regenerates you, find yourself here.

I can’t wait to meet you!

Style: Aerial Yoga that is Hatha Informed w/ Guided Imagination & Dialogue

A note about Class Space and Configuration:

Because this practice is unique in its approach and set up, I’m inviting you to participate within an individual and partnered setting. With one anchor as a common rigging framework, I’ll be adding a second anchor point to accommodate another person. Each rig will support two participants. The mobile aerial rigs are designed to accommodate up to 1,000 lbs of dynamic weight load which means you and your fellow yogi/yogini will feel supported in this two anchor configuration. Each person will have their own aerial hammock. For inversions and other suspended postures each person will take turns in their hammock to ensure safety.

No aerial yoga or yoga experience is necessary to participate in this immersion.

If you enroll in this immersion additional information will be provided prior to our gathering about the way of the aerial yoga hammock, what to wear, what to prepare for and what to expect.
