Exploration of Existence

This Yin Yoga class with Bernie Clark is focused on the Hips and Spine physically but will also offer an investigation of the Three Characteristics of Existence found in the Buddha’s teachings. As we linger in the physical practice we can also explore the concepts of dukkha, impermanence and no-self.

Contraindications: Students with lower back disorders should check with their doctors to make sure that they will be able to do flexion, twists and extension of the spine. Students with hip replacements should make sure that they do not adduct the legs or internally rotate the hips (avoid the Twisted Roots pose).
