Lotus Rising

Padmasana (Lotus position) is often used for meditation – the Buddha is often depicted in it. The Lotus leg position can also be developed in our asana practice. This advanced workshop is designed for students familiar with Padmasana and wish to explore postures that incorporate it. Students will be guided through forward bends, back bends, twists and arm balances in Lotus. Sequences for developing these postures will be given. This workshop also addresses Lotus in inversions. Students should be in good physical condition, experienced, and able to sit comfortably in Padmasana for five minutes without any pain.
