Nosara & Yin Yoga
Sansea Sparling
Sansea Sparling teaches Nosara Yoga, a gentle hatha flow, as well as Yin Yoga, a deeply relaxing practice in which we focus on joint flexibility. Poses are taught with emphasis on breath, anatomical alignment, humor and respect for the body. Classes include vinyasa flow, breath practice, the refinement of specific poses and hands-on assists--all set to world music.
Sansea's classes are gentle, slow--this gives you a chance to breathe fully and stretch deeply, as you build strength, stamina and poise. Long warming sequences set the foundations in breath and alignment; we move in a measured pace, each individual modifies the practice individually according to flexibility and age. Wear loose, layered clothing without zippers or buttons; we practice barefoot.
Take time to develop a pose. This class is appropriate for those who might be recovering from an injury, or who are beginners. First, a short meditation, then flow into classic postures; we finish in a quiet relaxation pose.
Yin Yoga classes take place on the floor and involve using lots of props. Muscles relax, as joints are rejuvenated by holding poses for a while, breathing fully. Watchwords are compassion and acceptance. Non-striving allows us to fold or extend into a pose, as each person defines the shape and extent of the pose, deepening hip and low back mobility. Gravity is our most important prop.
Ongoing Yin Yoga classes at Open Sky Studio: Mondays Noon-1:30
