The Art of Stillness: Exploring Shavasana

About the class

A workshop that delves into one of yoga’s most essential yet elusive postures: Shavasana is often described as the most important pose in practice, inviting deep relaxation, integration, and restoration, yet it can be one of the hardest to actually do.

We’ll explore the profound benefits of this final pose, discover how to adapt and prop it for individual needs, and finish with an extended guided Shavasana to fully experience its restorative potential.

Whether you struggle to settle into stillness or simply want to deepen your understanding of this vital posture, this workshop will offer insights and techniques to help you unlock the full power of rest and surrender.
