Each class consists of an asana practice including standing poses, forward folds, twists, inversions and backward bends, followed by a discussion about the art and practice of yoga. Keeping in mind Samamkaya’s focus on back care and scoliosis, Arunji may cover topics like spinal asymmetry, back problems and other therapeutic issues.

Full Weekend: $70*/$80
Saturday Only: $45*/$50
Sunday Only: $35*/$40

Osteoporosis is a bone disease that develops when bone mineral density and bone mass decreases. Come learn the actions that bear weight on the bones, mobilize the pelvis and send a fresh supply of blood to the joints.
Saturday, 2 – 4:30pm:
We will focus on standing poses (supported and unsupported) to help build strong bones, and the standing one-legged poses (such as vrksasana – Tree Pose) to help minimize the risk of falls, and therefore fractures.
Sunday 1:30 – 3:30pm:
We will learn how to take extra care of the spine by using props to keep it long in the forward bends, the (upright) extended spinal twists, and the reclining poses. We will also explore the poses that create space between the vertebrae: Adho Mukha Svanasana – Downward Facing Dog Pose, (and for the experienced students), Rope Sirsasana.

Pelvic Awareness and Connection with Patricia Videgain
In- Studio Monthly Series
Saturdays, 2:30-4pm
August 17, September 14, October 26, November 30, December 28
The goal of this monthly class is to learn about and connect to the pelvic space. Students will be given time and opportunity to experience, reclaim and embody the pelvic region, the female organs and the rhythms of the female cycle.
Each of the five classes will be a mix of lecture, discussion, asana and movement practice.
The classes will cover:
Exploration of the functional, somatic, and experiential anatomy of the pelvic region.
Exercises for self-discovery, flexibility, strengthening, and coordination of the pelvic region.
Guidelines for practicing yoga asana with pelvic alignment in mind, informing and creating connection with the organic body.
We each hold native, embodied wisdom. This wisdom reveals itself when we allow the natural genius of our bodies to show the way for practice and connection. Experiential Anatomy, Developmental Movement, and Iyengar Yoga can be vehicles to understand, connect to, reclaim and integrate the territory of the pelvis.
