ABRF 2019 Annual Meeting Program

.

• SUNDAY, MARCH 24, 2019

  6:30 am - 7:30 Am	RENEW HATHA YOGA Room 208 Come and join me at this Renew Hatha Yoga class! We will stretch and strengthen, relax and restore with this balanced practice accessible to all students of all levels. There will be opportunities to challenge yourself and deepen your practice through greater understanding of yoga and yourself.    There may be some dynamic movements, but poses will be held a little longer to allow your body to sink into the posture and increase strength and mobility. We will start the practice with breath work and setting an intention to start you out for your day. We will finish with guided meditation.   Come wearing comfortable clothes that allow movement and bring a yoga mat. If your mat did not fit into your luggage, we will arrange for clean towels from the hotel.    I am looking forward to meeting you! Aniko

The mix of dynamic movements and longer held poses of this class is designed to balance out the intense and repetitive movements of the muscles - perfect for people who spend considerable time at a desk at work or at a conference.    The class will start with breath work and will end with a 15 minute Yoga Nidra practice to set you up for comfortable rest at night.  Come wearing comfortable clothes that won’t restrict movement. Please bring a pair of socks and warm clothing to keep you comfortable for the last 15 minutes of the class. Bring a yoga mat if it fit into your luggage. We will arrange for large towels with the  hotel for the class to use as well.    I am looking forward to meeting you!  Aniko
