Upcoming Workshops

Weekend schedule will be posted soon.

This workshop is for teachers or students of yoga wanting to deepen their understanding of the human body in order to connect more effectively with their own bodies in practice and the bodies of their students.

An understanding of the human anatomy is an integral part of being an effective yoga instructor.

Laura is internationally acclaimed and recognized by the Iyengars as an authority on the subject of anatomy and asana.

As a clinical psychologist, I’ve worked with countless people struggling with depression and helped them restore some semblance of well-being. Although yoga is first and foremost a path to spiritual awakening, it also has a lot to offer anyone struggling with emotional issues and can be used to complement psychotherapy. Yoga has helped me recover from physical injuries and stress related ailments. It has brought relief from insomnia, fatigue, anxiety, grief, low mood, and chronic pain.  

In this two-part workshop John will guide you through  sequences of active and restorative postures and breathing techniques developed by Patricia Walden that are known to help people cope with depression and anxiety.

John will lead you using a technique known as “Felt Sense Focusing” (a self-healing method) to heighten your appreciation of the emotional effects of each practice you will do in the workshop. He will also introduce mindfulness practices designed to help you work with negative thinking patterns that interfere with happiness and the calm enjoyment of life.

John is a Ph.D Clinical Psychologist with 25 years of experience working with clients. He is an adjunct faculty at Naropa University and a Certified Iyengar Yoga Instructor who has studied directly with BKS and Geeta Iyengar. He is known by students for his calm presence, sense of humor, and clear teaching style.
