Yoga & Energetics Master Class

Yoga & Energetics Master Class:
Gathering Prana/Qi; Chakras 1 and 2.

Saturday February 5th (10:30 a.m. – 12:00 p.m.)

With Andrew Tanner

While yoga postures are often the main focus of one’s practice, it’s the movement of energy that those postures stir up where the magic of yoga lies. Sometimes, one’s body cannot create a certain shape… or the shape is there, but no energy is flowing… As one gets deeper into the study and practice of yoga, they may realize that the flow of energy, aka “Prana/Qi” is more interesting and impactful than simply the forms of their postures. This master class with longtime friend of Coolidge Yoga and Teacher Trainer, Andrew Tanner, will explore ways you can feel more Prana in your practice, ways to gather this energy within your chakras and circulate it throughout your body.

The goal of this class is to begin to experience and understand the general principles of energy that operate within the body. These principles have a basis in various yoga traditions as well as the western understanding of the nervous system. Andrew’s experience comes from 5 years as a Taoist adept, living a monastic life and studying Taoist breathwork and healing, as well as 5 years study of Hatha yoga under living master, Sri Dharma Mittra. This master class will borrow techniques from both the Sahm Je Taoist and Hatha-Raja yoga traditions.

You can expect to chant, meditate, move with vigour (not for total beginners), and then specifically focus on the Haeng Gong breathing practices of Sahm Je Taoist Yoga for strengthening the first two chakras. You will leave class feeling that you have travelled to a deep space within yourself and be encouraged to maintain that sense of mindfulness as you go throughout your weekend and reflect on your spiritual path.
