Rope Wall Yoga Class

02/19/2017 @ 10:45 am - 12:00 pm
RSY Surya Room

The Rope Wall Yoga Class is being offered to teach you how to perform the same poses on the wall that you perform on the mat. But, this class is going to teach you to 'sit' into your seat (asana) more deeply so that you may take the poses you learn on the wall and experience the depth of those poses and the boundaries of your expression while on the mat.

And yes, there will be inversion poses on the rope wall for those who wish to address their back conditions.

We will do 15 - 20 poses with the ropes while standing, bending forward, bending backwards, and hanging upside down.

You will learn safe and effective means to enter and exit the ropes so that you feel comfortable enough to use them.

Limited to 16 people. Please register in advance. Class Pass or $15

Yoga is foundational to Darlene's life. She was introduced to yoga in her late teens and has practiced intermittently until moving back to Buffalo in 2009. There she found Rising Sun Yoga and strengthened her practice with regular classes and workshops.

In January 2014, she completed "Kidding Around Yoga" training and began implementing yoga postures, breathing and relaxation into everyday instruction of her young students in Pre-Kindergarten.

With a desire to continue growing and learning yoga, she completed a 200-hour Registered Yoga Alliance Teacher Training program at Rising Sun Yoga in March 2015 and Bryan Legere’s Rope Wall Yoga program in September 2016. In May 2018 she completed a week long training for "Teaching Yoga to Seniors" at Kirpalu Center for Yoga and Health.

She teaches Outdoor Yoga (summers), Rope Wall Yoga, Intro to Yoga and substitute teaches at Rising Sun Yoga. Teaching children yoga continues to be a priority with weekly classes at Rattles to Reading Day Care and Pre-Kindergarten, ages 1-4 during the school year, and ages 2-12 during the summer. Also, she teaches chair yoga twice a week in the community.

She enjoys communicating the lifelong benefits of yoga to others through teaching and example while continuing to strengthen her personal practice.
