This four-week asana series explores foundational practice as a living expression of dharma — that which sustains, supports, and upholds. Rather than treating foundational work as merely “basic,” this series approaches it as the essential ground from which clarity, resilience, and intelligent progress emerge over time.
Drawing from the principles and methodology of Anusara Yoga, and informed by Christina’s nearly three decades of teaching experience, each class will emphasize precise, purposeful exploration of fundamental actions and organizing principles within asana practice. Through thoughtful sequencing, clear instruction, and progressive development, students will cultivate greater stability, mobility, awareness, and confidence in both familiar and more demanding postures.
What To Expect
At the heart of the series is the understanding that a truly effective yoga practice must be both sustaining and sustainable: nourishing enough to support us in the present moment while also creating conditions for long-term growth and longevity. Students will discover how returning to foundational work again and again can deepen insight, refine skill, and support meaningful evolution in practice without force or excess effort.
A wide variety of postures and variations will be explored throughout the series, offering students practical ways to adapt the practice to individual needs, abilities, and intentions while deepening understanding of core alignment principles.
Christina’s nuanced and educational teaching style encourages students not only to do the poses, but to understand how foundational actions create greater freedom, coherence, and possibility over time. This series is ideal for dedicated students and teachers alike, this series offers a grounded, intelligent approach to asana that honors consistency, discernment, and the steady unfolding of practice over time.
