Overview
Welcome to "Prana Danda - the Way of the Staff for Women" - the first in our Women in Rhtyhm series dedicated to the art of Prana Danda Yoga specifically for women. The Summer Series (Mondays June-July) focuses on embodying our inner danda as our inner staff and core connection as a wisdom instrument to walk your path in the world.
Based on the insights and inner practices from tantra, yoga and prana vinyasa flow, we will honor the danda as an instrument of awakening with prana flow namaskaram, body mudras, flowing asanas with the danda, mantras, and prayers to awaken the creativity, abundance, and wisdom inherent in women's bodies, hearts, and lives. As a moving meditation, we will awaken the "inner danda staff" through a dynamic and creative sequence with the outer staff in a grounded fluid method that includes whole body warm-ups, standing prana vinyasa, twists, hip openers, backbends, and rhythmic movement meditation to awaken the inner spirit of the danda.
* Experience an awakened understanding of your center - both structural and energetic to be applied to the flow of yoga and life.
* Explore metaphors for teaching alignment in the flow and movement meditation.
* Awaken and deepen our relationship to the sacred feminine, Shakti- as the source of women's vital energy and creative power * Connect with shakti sadhana (practice) for women to awaken, honor, and embody the sacred feminine for greater connectedness, creativity, inner empowerment and natural beauty. * Guided by Shiva Rea, longtime practitioner of Tantric Yoga, Prana Vinyasa and Kalarippayatu, and co-founder of Prana Danda Yoga with her partner, Demetri Velisarius.Our Summer series begins June 3rd and meets on Mondays from 10:00 - 11:00 pst and includes as a bonus our Creative Core - Sacred Training class at 10:00 followed by 10:30 Dandini - Prana Danda for Women class with Shiva LIVE online every season live in Los Angeles.
