Smart Yoga Classes in Melbourne

A program of 2024 classes with David Moore, Josie Eberhardt & Caroline Blackshaw.

with David Moore and Caroline Blackshaw based on the approach outlined in David's book "Smart Yoga: Apply the Alexander Technique to Enhance Your Practice, Prevent Injury, and Increase Body Awareness" )

 

Yoga is a wonderful tool for cultivating resilience and balance in our whole selves. The Alexander Technique helps you to discover how your movement habits affect your life, and helps you to develop better movement and posture. When we bring these two disciplines together, we can find ways to move through all activities of everyday life with greater ease.

 

Led by the director of the School for FM Alexander Studies and Melbourne Yoga Centre, David Moore and Caroline Blackshaw, these classes apply the principles of the Alexander Technique to yoga practice. They will explore how the basic principles of the Alexander Technique can be applied to eliminate excess tension in the body, maximising the benefits of your yoga practice. In Alexander Yoga, emphasis is placed on identifying habitual movement patterns that inhibit easy movement, and learning to move in a ways that bring your whole body into better coordination. These classes will provide you with an understanding of how Alexander Technique can be applied to increase ease and minimise strain in yoga practice, and how to take this ease into your  activities.

SMART YOGA

A thirty minute class all on the floor
FEATURING DAVID MOORE & SMART YOGA 

Hatha Yoga is an ancient system of harmonizing and centering mind, body and spirit.

 The yoga postures or asanas were developed in a traditional Indian society, amongst a society without chairs and consequently members of that society were more flexible in cross-legged sitting and squatting.

Rather than trying to get people to force their bodies into the shape of some of the classic yoga postures,

​

SMART YOGA encourages people to move in ways that promote an opening and freedom, without putting pressure on the neck, back or knees, areas that are often injured by people trying to force their bodies into inappropriate movements.
