Yoga Offerings
That all depends on you, on what your body wants, what your mind feels up to that day, and what you’re hoping to get out of yoga. In general, expect lots of gentle breathing, flowing movements matched with your breath, strong, still poses with a focus on body alignment, and meditation. My classes encourage students to develop concentration and to pay attention to what’s happening in their body. At Songbird Yoga, we use the asana (movement and postures) to bring our attention to what’s happening inside both body and mind. We blend asana with yoga’s teachings and contemporary mindfulness practices. In any one session this might include: and The body is the tool we use to access these practices. I aim to help you find a deeper connection with yourself and to give you the tools you need to tap into your own strength and courage both on and off the yoga mat. Yoga sessions with me are about collaboration. I bring the yoga know-how; you bring the knowledge living in your own mind and body has given you. Do you have disabilities or a chronic illness and wonder how yoga can help you? Maybe you’ve been to a class or two that really didn’t work for you, or maybe even made your symptoms temporarily worse. Contact me to learn more. Rest is essential to our well-being. Among other things, it helps with: . The act of relaxing and turning inward is deeply healing and nourishing. Yoga Nidra is a gentle guided awareness practice that can help you unwind mentally, let go of muscle tension, and even sleep. Yoga nidra is a practice of receiving rather than doing. The yoga nidra approach Robin offers is soft and nondemanding, and surprisingly simple. All that is required is a stable place to sit or lie down and a blanket for warmth or comfort. The practice itself is a narrated journey into and through the body. All you are asked to do is to observe, and be present with the experience of observing. Send us a message to schedule a session!
Yoga Consultation
Using her training as a yoga teacher, her nearly two decades of yoga practice, and her deep knowledge (gained through both study and experience) of what it is like to move through a world that was not built with disabled and chronically ill people in mind, Robin will teach you about what yoga is, and help you come up with what to look for in yoga practices and teachers that will meet and support you where you are.
