Adaptive Yoga
Instructor: Saraswathi Devi
Yoga is for everyone! Join us for postures, movement and stretches, augmented by breathing, visualization, meditation, massage and acupressure techniques tailored to your individual needs, interests and abilities. Through the generous use of props and the assistance of volunteers, you will experience a refreshing body-mind workout and learn things to do on your own. Each student will practice as indepenedently or as interactively as is appropriate - on the floor, in a chair, with each other - we will find a thousand ways.
About Saraswathi Devi: Saraswathi Devi has taught Prana Yoga since 1976. She studied under the guidance of her teacher, the Grandmaster Swami Vignanananda of India, from 1974 until his passing in 2008. She teaches postures, breathing techniques, meditation, visualization and yoga philosophy, incorporating Thai yoga massage, reiki, acupressure and nutrition into her work. Her students are of all ages, levels and abilities. One of her abiding inspirations is the adaptive yoga programs for people living with disabilities she has conducted since 1990.
