CLASSES
Restorative and Processing Yin
This End of Event flow class utilizes the techniques of Yin Yoga and restorative processing to silence the noise and retreat inwards, as we have been running ourselves ragged this whole weekend, filling our brains and testing our bodies, this class is an invitation to slow down and allow our experiences to sink into us. This is a slow class, and poses are held longer. Wear comfortable clothes, and bring a mat if you have one (the instructor will have a few)
Pranayama and pain: How our breath can guide us through anything
Pranayama, the practice of breath regulation, comes from the Sanskrit terms “prana” meaning life energy, and “yama” meaning control. Considered a science in itself and the fourth limb of yogic practice, this class teaches the way in which this practice of breath control can deepen our experience, connection, and endurance in scenes.
This class is a unique opportunity to explore the intersection of the ancient practice of pranayama, or breathwork, and the modern practice of BDSM. you will explore the use of breathwork in BDSM play, both as a tool for enhancing your own experience and as a means of communicating with your partner. You will learn how to use your breath to manage pain, increase endurance, and intensify your sensations, as well as how to use your breath to facilitate the communication of needs and desires.
