Walk with us ☺️

Join us for Father’s Day Breathwork Workshop 🧡

We will honor and appreciate the fathers in our lives, whether they were present or absent, loving or incapable of showing love, strong and vulnerable.
✨
This powerful workshop is an invitation to connect with your breath and your body, and to reflect on the lessons and experiences that your fathers have brought into your life.
✨
Clarity breathwork is a type of breathwork that focuses on using the breath to release physical and emotional tension from the body. During this process, the body and mind are brought into a state of relaxation, allowing for greater clarity and insight.
✨
The beauty of clarity breathwork is that it is self-regulating - it will offer you the experience that you need in that moment - no more and no less.
These experiences can help us to connect more deeply with ourselves and the world around us, and to live more authentically and purposefully.

Do you experience shoulder tension?

Have you injured your rotator cuff or have shoulder impingement?

In this workshop we will uncover the complexities of the shoulder joint. We will learn how knowledge of your muscle anatomy and movements of your shoulder can help strengthen your yoga practice.

You will learn simple cues that can provide you with strength, stability and mobility in common yoga postures.

The workshop teaches the difference between each of the rotator cuff muscles and their functions.
You will learn about which yoga poses can help or hinder certain injuries or types of pain.
We will discuss the importance between having a strong, stable yet flexible shoulder and where your anatomical limits might be.

Chad is no stranger to shoulder injuries.

Having gone through dislocations, separations, broken clavicle and surgery. Chad has spent over a decade learning how to keep his shoulder and his patients shoulders strong and stable.

Questions like, “Where should my shoulders be in warrior pose? How much pressure should I put in my hands for downward dog?” will be answered.

We will use a combination of Yin Yoga, Myofascial release and strengthening in this course to open your shoulders and deepen your yoga practice.

This workshop is for all levels of students 🧘🏼‍♂️

A little reminder to feel the love today ☺️🧡

Whether our experience in being mothered, was, or is, full of tenderness, unspoken pain, or a seemingly inelegant mix, we are forever shaped by our Mothers.
✨
Parts of what make us us, come from her lived life, unaccomplished dreams, hopes, fears, longings and remembrances as well as her indescribable truths, inexpressible loves and joys and her every day moments of experienced grace.
✨
Love it or hate it, we are our mothers' children and will forever be. Down to our cellular matrices, remembered by our limbic system, and stored in our soma, are these forever etchings; passed generation to generation, womb to womb.
✨
This Mothers Day, come explore your living Mother lineage as it lives in you. Within your body, your breath, your mind. ❤️

Join Daemond Mano and Nattalia Walkker as we journey together using Dyads, Conscious Connected Breathing, and Mandala Art to unfold the mother layers of you, in celebration, transfiguration, integration, and re-creation.

**No previous experience necessary**

✨What to Bring: Bring a water bottle and a yoga mat. Dress comfortably in layers. We have a lot of props to make yourself comfortable including zabutons, bolsters, and blankets. You are welcome to bring your own blanket or pillow to ensure your comfort during the breath session, which is typically done lying down.
