Kripalu Yoga is a practice of self-awareness, self-empowerment, and personal growth. This yogic tradition allows the practitioner to access their spirit through the vehicle of the physical body, becoming aware of the interactions of physical, mental, and emotional experience.  Through the conscious awareness that arises in this practice, the practitioner releases blockages to their natural essence; energy is freed, and healing occurs on all levels of being.

 

In this workshop, "Kripalu Yoga – Meditation in Motion", Nancy Moelaert will lead us in an exploration of the philosophical and practical fundamentals of Kripalu Yoga inviting the participant into a personal experience of meditation in motion.  This is an experience that will resonate well beyond the mat.

Nancy Moelaert had led a very active lifestyle in competitive sports, which in turn led to years of coping with injuries and chronic pain. Seeking a physical activity that healed and nurtured her, she discovered yoga in 1995.  Through her yoga practice, Nancy's pain diminished, while her strength and flexibility increased. In 2007 Nancy became a Certified Kripalu Yoga Instructor and Holistic Health Councillor.  Through her training she was awakened to the true aim of yoga: increased self-awareness of our physical, energetic, emotional and spiritual bodies. This transformation was so profound that it became the basis of the style of Yoga Nancy teaches today.

Nancy’s style of Kripalu Yoga invites a deep inner exploration. Each class is a unique experience and adjusted to the vibrations of the participants. Her joy of teaching resonates through the room and her attention to detail is shared with compassion.  Her continuous invitations to breathe and feel more deeply, opens practitioners' awareness and encourages them to find their own bliss and inner peace.

 

The workshop will begin at 1pm and run until 5:00pm.  There is an early-bird deadline for this workshop of April 6th ($65 + HST). After April 6th however, the regular fee of $75 + HST will apply.

TESTIMONIALS

From past Workshops or Retreats:

 

This course really has altered my path in a positive way. The meditations, knowledge and movements have shifted and brought a greater understanding to my healing process, my energy system and my breath. It has kindled a fire of awareness that is alive and moving. Exciting!

 

What an incredible, beautiful chakra exploration/ journey this has been.  I find the organic loosening of the body tensions and rediscovering meridians liberating. I feel more, I breathe better, I am able to integrate and move forward beyond any 'logical analysis' or 'common sense-disciplined-reasoning' that I could do.

Your workshop is balancing, integrating and uniting the mind, body and soul.
You're amazing!

 I can only think of positive comments for the retreat.  The food, the music, the people, the exercises, the view, the activities, everything was quite wonderful and renewing.  I'd go again in a heart beat.  Your presence made the retreat a time to treasure. You definitely have a gift in yoga and communication. We love you.

TESTIMONIALS

 

Many thanks for showing me kripalu. You have made a believer out of me. From the first mountain pose when you said "can you feel the prana?" I did! It was great! You have shown me that yoga IS for everyone. You gave me adaptations and modifications that worked and never made me feel excluded, I have accomplished things I was not sure that first night that I could. Your style and method of teaching have touched me physically, emotionally and spiritually both on and off the mat. I feel blessed to have found your class and I look forward to continuing my yoga journey.

May the new year be filled with Light, Love and Laughter.

I got SO much out of your class. I could feel my body change and open, which re-energized my whole being. I love how my breath continues to be so deep for days afterwards. You are an amazingly gifted teacher.
