Backbends: Dissolving the Glue of our Ribcage

Instructor: Rodney Yee
Saturday, May 17
11:00am-1:00pm: Main Conference
Code: M2RYEE
All Levels


We often block the natural rhythms and ease of our chest with our fear habits. Allow the ribs to serve as wings instead of a cage. We’ll open up with focused backbends that harness our energies into our heart chakra. Mostly asana.



Forward Bends: Asana Without Conflict
Instructor: Rodney Yee
Saturday, May 17
3:30pm-5:30pm: Main Conference
Code: M3RYEE
All Levels


All too often we fight ourselves in our yoga postures, and our body becomes the battleground. Luckily, the quality of absorption of our breath is a great barometer for helping us to work differently and resolve this conflict. We’ll mainly practice forward bends to explore how to find peace in our asanas. Mostly asana.
