The winter season is when we give it our all on the slopes and expect our bodies to comply.
The process of warming up and cooling down, before and after our physical exertion has so many benefits - including the reduction of injuries. Join a yoga workshop focussed entirely on yin and yang energies, utilising the balance of opposites to develop and aid our mountain prowess.
The first half is looking at energetic vinyasa flow to activate core muscles, open hips and knees and strengthen arms. Through conscious sequencing we switch on the dynamic reflexes in order to be ready to respond and navigate the hurdles of the mountain. In the second half we wind down with long held postures, deep abdominal breath and a shift towards the parasympathetic nervous system - helping us "rest and digest". Learning to enjoy deep relaxation (naturally) lets the body and mind process everything it has experienced, so its important to always take time for restoration. By combining both the yin and the yang we can achieve balance and optimal holistic health - in this case, supporting our bodies and mind for maximum slope time.
Cost: €15 or €12 for seasonaires
