Beginner and Basic Yoga Ropes Workshop, with Corrie Vorlaufer

In Iyengar yoga, poses using the ropes are referred to as yoga Kurunta. Kuranti is a puppet, a doll made of wood. In yoga Kurunta one learns to manipulate oneself in the various yoga postures by means of a suspended rope as if one were a puppet. Here the puppeteer and the puppet are one, performing their own puppet show. Performing yogasanas (yoga poses) with the aid of a rope has many advantages. Due to the rope movement the spine becomes supple and even difficult asanas can be done easily and safely. Please bring a pair of gym (short finger type) gloves with you if you have some. This workshop is limited to 30 people.
