May 7th Friday,  5:30pm - 8:00pm: $45/$50 Introduction: The Pelvis and Abdominal Muscles

A PowerPoint presentation at the beginning of the session will explain how the pelvis functions as the way-station connecting the upper and lower skeleton via the sacroiliac (SI) joint, and how the abdominal muscles work as pulleys to keep the pelvis in in its proper track. Having an anatomical understanding to link with asana-actions will help create a more concrete base for our asana practice.

May 8th Saturday, 10:00am - 12pm: $35/$40 A Gateway to the Pelvis through Standing Asanas

Standing poses are often taken for granted because they are some of the first asanas learned in yoga classes. In this session we will build upon the familiarity of the standing poses to elicit abdominal support for pelvic alignment and pelvic floor awareness.

May 8th Saturday,  2:00pm - 4:00pm: $35/$40 Opening the Inner Groin for Pelvic Floor Insights

When the inner groin muscles limit movements at the hip joints, dullness of the abdominal and pelvic floor muscles sets in. Stretching the inner groin muscles in supine and seated asanas can help reestablish freedom of movement at this important juncture.

May 9th Sunday,  8:30am - 10:00am:  $25/$30 Back Extensions as a Portal to the Pelvic Floor Muscles

All asanas hold an opportunity of self-discovery. In this session, the search to understand pelvic floor support will be taken through back-extending asanas.Entire workshop:  $125 members/ $150 non-members

May 16th Sunday, 2:00pm - 4:00 pm Q and A on the Pelvic Floor
