Workshop: Yoga for Musicians

For grades 9 through Adult.
This all-levels class will be a hybrid of lecture, movement, and breathwork.
The movement focus will be on finding more ease in the body and a more comfortable postural alignment using traditional vinyasa sun salutations along with prehab movements specific to musicians (focusing on the fingers/wrists/forearms/shoulders, as well as some drills focused to target all the sitting we find ourselves doing in long rehearsals).
Breathwork will be introduced as a way of feeling the beat and the phrasing in the body while strengthening the diaphragm as well as learning ways of breathing that can calm the mind and nervous system before a performance.
