This workshop is designed to introduce writers to a simple, effective and practical way to relieve tension, improve posture and breathing, and refresh both the body and mind while at work. With the ancient practice of Yoga as our framework, we will explore techniques and exercises to encourage better posture and relieve the common aches and pains that tend to accompany hours upon hours spent at the computer.
All are welcome! No previous yoga experience is required. Even if you are currently living with an injury you can benefit from this workshop.
Most props (chairs, mats, blankets) will be provided at the yoga studio but please bring your yoga mat if you own one. Please wear comfortable clothing (no jeans please). The workshop will take place in bare feet.
Maximum: 20 participants
