Art of Sitting
In this workshop the Art of Sitting in yoga postures will be explained in detail. We will
look into the methods of using belts, blocks, blankets, mats and such props to help the student to work
with different challenges in establishing correct seated postures for asana, pranayama and meditation.
Relationship of such postures with other more dynamic postures will be examined. Every sitting posture
has a physical stillness; within the stillness there are still organic and pranic dynamic actions. We will
learn to work with these actions in stillness and to examine the psychological implications of such actions.
We will also explore some ways of tuning into spiritual value of such effort. For more general description
refer to General Approach in Yoga Classes and Workshops.
This workshop is appropriate for teachers as well as students who have been practicing yoga for
at least one year.
