Details
We will be presenting the anatomy of the hips and show that
hips are very individual joints, which are determined by gender and culture.
During this workshop we will introduce the anatomy of the
hips and how it affects our stance and how it has a direct relationship with most of the asanas whether we do
standing, sitting, back bend or inverted
poses.
We will be presenting a progressive sequence of poses over
the two days, which will take you
into a deeper emotional, mental and physical foundation of your asanas
practice.
Michel Besnard has been practicing yoga since 1978 and
teaching since 1983, he was a direct student
