WHERE
Studio Yogisi, Zurich, Switzerland

WHY
Through a regular and smart yoga practice, we create a long and joyous life. Restorative Yoga techniques go beyond relaxing and resting. True renewal happens when the spine finds its optimal shape, joints are centered, the organs are oxygenated, our biochemistry works at its optimum and the breath flows naturally. Yoga asana becomes a restorative practice when our consciousness can travel throughout the  body and nurture our entire being with life force.

HOW
Reni teaches techniques and prop set up to align and support the body. You’ll learn to use blocks, blankets and straps to either restore yourself at home or to work with your students. The techniques mostly stem from Katonah Yoga® and are designed to work with all types of students. This workshop is a explorative and practical training: besides practicing and experiencing different asana and exercises, you’ll learn how to support other people’s bodies. The goal is to develop vision and the skills to confidently and correctly touch and adjust the student's bodies as well as to guide the more refined parts (mind, breath).

10 Hour Module FOUNDATIONS (August 20 + 21)
The first two days of this training cover all the basic setups and introduce students to the approach of Restorative Yoga.

10 Hour Module ADVANCED (August 22 + 23)
The two consecutive days are designed to cover more complex restorative set ups and adjustments as well as the energetic component of practicing, and teaching Restorative Yoga.

WHAT - Topics to be covered:
  • Introduction to Restorative Yoga
  • Therapeutic set-ups with props; different bodies - same asana, finding geometry
  • Seeing, supporting and adjusting others
  • Spine and joint health, optimally functioning organs, flow of breath, opening the energy portals
  • Establishing a home practice for ritualized self-care
  • Practical input for special student groups (for example 60+, injured, pregnant, postpartum, athletes etc.)
  • Understanding a seasonal yoga practice, 5-element-theory
  • Energetic component of practicing and teaching Restorative Yoga
