*** 5 Days of Pure Therapeutic Delight ***
We are excited to be back at Parmath Niketan ashram, Rishikesh this year, to dive in the practice of Lunar (therapeutic) Acroyoga... and in mother Ganga river! Join us in the supportive atmosphere of an AcroYoga Immersion in the sweet vibe of Rishikesh, one of the yoga and meditation hotspot of India,... along the high Ganges shores... and yes, beaches!
This Lunar Immersion focuses on the healing, relaxing and rebalancing practices of Thai massage and therapeutic flying. The Lunar Asana Sequence teaches basic body mechanics with a focus on self-love cultivation, in preparation for the dance of Thai massage. The techniques learned on the floor are then translated to the flying work, using the element of gravity to amplify the healing flow of prana (life force). Often, we will work in teams of three or more for safety and support, and everyone will have the opportunity to base and fly, heal and be healed.
We love it there, that's why we keep coming every year at this season, and invite more people to enjoy, recharge and transform.
Skills Covered:
This 30 hours program (9am-12pm + 2-5pm) offers invaluable tools for yoga teachers, massage therapists, and energy workers who wish to develop a new dimension of healing touch for students or clients:
