​The Chakras and Your Yoga Practice - Weekend Workshops with Jay Suttonbrown

APRIL 22 & 23
Picture
Spend a weekend with Jay Suttenbrown, exploring how the subtle energy body of the Chakras can inform, elevate, inspire and transform your yoga practice. Drawing from two lineages Hatha and Kundalini, come experience the effects of our powerful inner world on our physical practices.

"Yoga is delving deep for our truth, our empowerment, our acceptance, and our joy in living. Balancing physical health, conscious living, and “real life” is a process, not a destination."


Jay is founder of Manipura Yoga School, located in Nanaimo, BC. The Manipura program is rooted in Hatha Yoga (yoga of balance) and Kundalini Yoga (yoga of awareness) traditions.  
​SATURDAY: CHAKRAS AND THE PRACTICE OF ASANA
Saturday April 22, 11am - 4:30pm 
“It is here the yogi embarks on the inward journey to the core of his/her being.” ~B.K.S. Iyengar
​​
The practice of Hatha Yoga embraces body, breath, mind and spirit. It is the inward journey to the core of our being. What happens when you expand your awareness of your energetic body into your physical practice? Join Jay Suttonbrown as she interweaves the subtle bodies into a foundational and dynamic practice. Learn how to use the energetic body of the chakras to establish a grounded, fluid, stronger, and more compassionate asana practice.

We will explore: 
  • The Chakras and the subtle energy bodies of Yoga and Meditation
  • How the energetic bodies create a stronger and more fluid physical practice
  • How to access seated, standing and inversions for everybody (there is an energetic access point to each posture, regardless if you get physically upside down)
  • How to utilize the energy bodies to deepen your practice to cultivate compassion, clarity and wisdom.
​Bring journal, pens, water bottle, and a light lunch. 
​
This workshop is eligible for 5 hours CEU with Yoga Alliance. Continuing Education Units are required to maintain your status as a Registered Yoga Teacher. 
​The workshop includes relevant lecture, yoga practice, an opportunity to practice new approaches to various yoga asanas, several breathing techniques, and meditation, along with time to reflect and discuss the experiences that will naturally arise from this class. This workshop is open to all levels.

SUNDAY APRIL 23: THE POWER OF THE CHAKRAS IN RAISING AWARENESS
Sunday April 23, 11am - 4:30pm
“The barriers to change lay deep in the subconscious and are not easy to access with your rational, thinking mind. These blocks can be released through the chakra balancing practices of Kundalini Yoga and Meditation.” Gloria Latham

Kundalini Yoga and Meditation is the powerful practice of awareness. How do the chakras work in expanding our practice, deepening our connection to our inner wisdom, and elevating our joy? This training session will focus on the 1st -3rd Chakras: Moving from Fear to Acceptance, Sourcing Creativity and finding Commitment.

We will explore:
  • The Chakras and the subtle energy bodies of Yoga and Meditation
  • How the energetic bodies create a stronger and more fluid physical practice
  • How to work through resistance in Kriya practice with the power of the subtle body (there is an energetic access point to each movement in Kriya)
  • How to utilize the energy bodies to deepen your practice to cultivate compassion, clarity and wisdom.
​​Bring journal, pens, water bottle, and a light lunch. ​
