three weekends
with Susannah Hoffman
1 + 2, 8 + 9, 15 + 16 July 2023
deepen your awareness of yoga
overview
This yoga foundation course, held over three weekends at triyoga Camden, will help you to develop your yoga practice and expand your knowledge and understanding of the postures and of yoga more generally.
You’ll learn more about the postures, key alignment points and how to practise yoga to suit your body’s unique anatomy and its needs. You also explore other yogic practices such as use of the breath, mudras and chanting. You’ll gain an overview of the history and different paths of yoga, and consider how to apply the key teachings to your everyday life.
The course can be taken purely for your own interest, learning and development, and to help you develop a personal practice, and can also give you a firm foundation from which to consider a future yoga teacher training, if you wished to pursue that in the future.

The training is on the following weekends at triyoga Camden:
1 + 2 July
8 + 9 July
