This workshop is dedicated to teachers and intermediate/advanced students who want to develop a deeper understanding of vinyasa flow sequencing. It is suitable for teachers who have recently qualified or are in their first couple years of teaching, for those coming from different traditions and wanting to develop an understanding of vinyasa flow or for those wishing to take a fresh look at their sequencing. The workshop is also suitable for students who have a confident self-practice and want to delve deeper into crafting more creative and maybe less repetitive sequences for themselves. If you have attended the previous self-practice series, you are also welcome to join this workshop.
We will focus on:
The foundations of a class/practice
Theme building
Tempo of a class/practice
Structure of a class/practice
Spicing up our sun salutations
Coherent sequencing
The theory of counter-balancing
Integrating other practices (yin, restorative, meditation, pranayama)
Dates:
Saturday November 28th from 2:30-5:30pm
Sunday November 29th from 10am-5pm (lunch break from 1-2pm)

Erika spent many years of her life in the corporate world, while also raising a family. She has practiced yoga for over 15 years. It was in 2007 however, that she feels she grasped the true potential of yoga. She was suffering from physical injuries and ill health, after years of stressful living had taken their toll, and found that yoga helped her heal on a profound level. This is also when she decided to pursue her teacher training completing her RYT 500 training with The Art of Contemporary Yoga in 2010. Erika is particularly interested in the therapeutic benefits of yoga and in the impact stress has on our lives. She hopes that her classes create a safe and warm space, where students can let go of external pressures and experience a place of stillness and pure being. Her classes are energetic, yet leaving space for her students to practice mindfulness and awareness. Erika teaches groups, privates and workshops in South West London and thrives from seeing students progress, grow and flourish from the benefits they reap from their yoga practice. She is also qualified to teach meditation, having completed her 200 hour training with Inside Meditation.
