Join us for this special workshop consisting of a 40 posture sequence of yoga asanas developed by Tony Sanchez and evolved from the Bishnu Ghosh Lineage, the same lineage as the Bikram yoga 26+2 series!
Please join our guest teacher, Esther Oh, for a 2 hour workshop!
Beyond 26+2 sequence features 40 therapeutic postures bringing deeper focus on hip openers, arm balances, abdominal and other strengthening exercises; thus a great compliment to the Bikram 26+2 practice. While this sequence can be described as an extension of the 26+2 series, it is accessible to all levels as multiple options & modifications are offered within the practice. This will be a 2 hour workshop: 90 minute Core 40 Class led in a “Master class” format allowing for questions & more in-depth exploration into postures. This workshop will inspire you to practice with curiosity, compassion & celebration!
About Esther: My love affair with Yoga started in 2005 with Bikram yoga which eventually led me down the path to complete BY Teacher Training in Fall of 2006. Since then I have taught and continue to teach at various studios in Western Canada and the US and owned & operated studio. I have had the honor of being on Staff & Faculty at the Teacher Trainings Fall 2008 and Spring 2009 sessions and served on the First Aid / CPR certification team from 2008-2010; this was an invaluable experience that deepened my knowledge and appreciation for the practice and the art of teaching yoga.
My love of yoga has expanded into practicing & teaching a mosaic of various different styles of yoga including yin & Tony Sanchez's Master Core 40 sequences. I hold a Master's Degree in Clinical Social Work & in my "former life" I had the privilege of counselling children, youth, adults & family systems in the addictions and mental health care sector. It never ceases to amaze me how the two paths of healing parallel and compliment each other. I am a qualified trauma informed yoga instructor and endeavor to deepen my knowledge in this area. Either as a clinician or as a yoga instructor, I believe in practice over preaching; building capacity & removing obstacles to self empowerment. I practice everyday; it’s physical and mental hygiene – it’s that simple and that powerful.
