Developing a personal practice is as important as attending a weekly class. In class, you discover each pose's tendencies as well as your body's particular habits. To change these habits and move toward greater balance in the poses, you need to practice on your own. Near the end of each session, Sharon will offer a class to help students begin a home practice. This class will be open to anyone who has attended classes at the center. It will be free to students who are registered for the current session. To help students start or deepen their home practice, we offer open practice time(s) each session. Open practice is available to any Level 1-2 or Level 2 student who has attended a class during the week. It is silent, and either Sharon or another student will be present, doing their own practice. If you think you might be interested in discovering what it's like to practice together in this way, please email Sharon@YogaOn30A.com or talk to Sharon in class. Starting later this summer, we'll have a led practice for Level 1 students. During this practice, either Sharon or another senior student will lead students in a sequence of familiar poses. The teacher will do the poses in front of you but will not give any instruction. Participating in a led practice is a good way to move towards a home practice.
