Intro to Thai Yoga Bodywork
Based on the northern style of Traditional Style of Thai Massage ( Nuad Boran ) Thai Yoga Bodywork is an ancient form of work from Thailand stemming back over 2500 years to the time of Buddha.
In this class, we will pair up with a partner to ground, stretch, twist, breathe and take care of one another while we learn a basic sequence and alternate giving and receiving. Take home a manual and duplicate the practice at home. 2.5 hrs continuing education available from Yoga Alliance.
In this class you will explore:
*The history and benefits of Thai Bodywork
*Basic relaxation techniques for the end of a session
*How to give a basic one hour session designed to share with friends and family, not to give as a practitioner. *No experience necessary and this class is open to all levels.
Five participants needed to run the course. Cancellation policy of 48 hours required.
