WEEKEND MASTERCLASSES WITH CAROLE TOULOUSY-MICHEL

SATURDAY, APRIL 15 & SUNDAY, APRIL 16, 1:00 - 4:00 PM

Take a quantum leap into Spring 2023 to shift mentally, physically and spiritually into upcoming new paradigms with yoga therapist Carole Toulousy-Michel. Meet our challenging and changing times where strength, endurance, intuition and wisdom are the qualities we presently need to channel. Even though other yogic traditions and modalities will be also used during these
classes, Kundalini yoga, referenced in the sacred Vedic texts known as the Upanishads (c. 1000 BC – 500 BC) as a science of energy and spiritual philosophy, offers documented yogic technology to quickly alter our biochemical profile and bring about a
very calm healing state associated to a healthy lifestyle. Thus, our following practices will be supported by the appropriate yogic matrix to equalize the energy of our nervous system and of our glandular system and obtain total balance of mind, body and spirit. The following Kundalini Master Classes focus on yogic technology with unique combinations of: specific breathing patterns-pranayama- coupled with energetic body locks -bandhas; special postures and movements including exact positioning of the hands and fingers -mudras; particular mantras, consisting of distinct vibratory sounds; and a unique mental focus.

KUNDALINI FOUNDATION MASTERCLASS: A GATEWAY TO RESILIENCE

SATURDAY, APRIL 15, 1:00 - 4:00 PM
This class will focus on the inner aspects and deeper structures in the body to improve our resilience to stress in balancing our central nervous system with coordinated repetitive poses, specific pranayama exercises and meditation; stop our deleterious thoughts that keep us from moving on, with particular mudras and distinctive mantras; soften our mind and body resistance to access our innate creativity power with bandhas that stimulate the endocrine secretions and direct body energy; and integrate and recalibrate the body with brief relaxation periods.

“TUNE UP YOUR ENDURANCE AND EVOLUTIONARY POWER FOR SPRING” MASTERCLASS

SUNDAY, APRIL 16, 1:00 - 4:00 PM
This Kundalini-Hatha Fusion yoga sequence is accessible to everyone and is best designed to help you as we transition into Spring by toning and stabilizing your nervous system, unlocking your flexibility and stamina and waking up your Spring attributes like vivacity, inspiration, motivation and renewal while warding off opposite attributes like irritability, anger and rigidity. Practice will also be based on our kinesiology body map to identify key organs and functions derived from Ayurveda and Traditional Chinese Medicine. The goal is to unlock, absorb, stimulate or calm down and balance this new seasonal
energy with breathing techniques based on neuroscience to open up our field of perception toward new thought processes; multiple postural stretches to decompress our joints and to unlock stagnating energy that feed organs and glands supporting the Spring season; dynamic and repetitive movements for in-depth organ massage; and specific mudras and bandhas to perfect this comprehensive practice.

RATES: Single class: €45 in studio, €30 online. Both: €85 in studio, €55 online.

She is registered as a Kundalini Yoga teacher (200hrs) by the Kundalini Research Institute. As part of required continuous yoga education by the previous organizations, she continuously trains to also learn other yoga traditions that allow her to craft and draw her yoga therapy techniques and classes from other modalities like Ashtanga Yoga, Yin Yoga, Anusara Yoga, and Viniyoga Therapy, with
accents of Ayurveda that she was introduced to in India and Traditional Chinese Medicine acupressure and QiGong to respect the different seasonal aspects within the body and the mind and to obtain balance, stamina and homeostasis. She also is a health coach. She fluently speaks Italian. Her objective is to uplift her students so that they rid of old patterns that no longer serve them and move on emotionally, physically and spiritually.
