Deep Hips is a challenging 90-minute class that systematically stretches the connective tissues surrounding the hip structure, leaving the lower body with a sense of length, openness, and balance. Props are provided and greatly encouraged…to achieve alignment and intended sensations and comfort throughout the practice. Open to all levels.

Restorative Yoga every Wednesday Night with Kim Paola at 5:45 begins Oct. 18th

Restorative Yoga is practiced on the floor, or on the wall and uses props to align the body into gentle chest openers, back bends, spinal twists and forward folds. Each of the postures are held for 5 minutes or more. Deep breathing and mindful attention to the sensations of the body and the experience of stillness is a primary focus. This class is perfect for any level student who wants to restore and renew body, mind and spirit by means of a quiet, introspective practice. It is considered to be a healing practice for people who suffer with anxiety, depression, insomnia, inflammatory diseases, back pain, side effects from chemotherapy, and many stress induced symptoms in the body/mind.

Drop In Sunday Night Yin Yoga is Back…begins September 24th at 5:45 PM

Yin Yoga is a more meditative approach to a deep physical practice. This sequence of Yin postures are held for a long period of time to target the deep connective tissues of the body and to promote the flow of energy particularly in the core body and hips.

This class is designed to counter the negative effects of a busy Yang lifestyle, sitting for long periods of time, or any sport that can create imbalance in the body. The practice is intended to facilitate a connection to the more Yin aspects of our physical, emotional and spiritual selves.

Blankets, blocks and a bolster will be used. If you have your own props, please bring them.

Rolling Your Way into Rest and Recovery Monday Aug. 28 5:45 PM – 7:45 PM

Rolling Your Way into Rest and Recovery with Monica WoodMost of us know how to work hard, but do you know how to rest well?  If you’re like me, rest is not something I consistently do well.  Aches and pains, stress from work or just racing thoughts can interfere with getting a good night’s sleep.  Rest and recovery are two essential elements in building a stronger, more resilient mind and body.  One problem that many people have is learning how to actually calm down the nervous system to allow ourselves to rest well.In this workshop you will be taught techniques to facilitate a relaxation response in the body using therapy balls and breathing techniques.  The therapy balls will loosen the tight muscles and fascia that can be causing discomfort that will hinder your ability to relax.  Adding specific breath practices will deepen the experience of calming down the body and mind.Whether you are an athlete training for an event, a busy mom, a stressed out student or a woman in menopause this workshop is one you don’t want to miss.To get the most effective experience, this will be held in the evening to get you ready for a good night’s sleep.Monday, August 285:45-7:45$30

PRIVATE YOGA THERAPY

Greetings Hattiesburg Yoga Community!
     I am pleased to officially announce my certification with The International Association of Yoga Therapists. Since 2005, I have been offering group and private sessions for a variety of ailments and conditions as an alternative healing method, meant to complement conventional western medicine. Yoga Therapy is considered a current and evolving field of health care.

LOOKING FOR A PRIVATE YOGA THERAPY SESSION?

Private Yoga Therapy sessions with me are available by appointment. Recommended for individuals with challenges in mobility, strength or motor control, habitual movement patterns that cause pain, or experienced students who seek to refine their practice. Recommended for athletes who, from muscular imbalance, structural misalignment or overuse, have injuries or limitations. Private yoga therapy sessions are also available to anyone suffering from various symptoms of scoliosis, inflammatory disease, chemotherapy side effects, PTSD, anxiety, depression, chronic pain, or are in recovery from addiction.

A private session includes an initial assessment, detailed instruction and a yogic prescription by email that is intended to be used as home practice. I recommend atleast 3 sessions to establish relationship and for me to fully offer my best on how to move forward. Please note that I do not diagnose issues, but can work with a medical diagnosis. My sessions are intended to be complementary to other forms of health care.
