A meditation and restorative yoga workshop focused on releasing the impressions our past stresses have left on the muscles in order to rebirth ourselves through and into the present moment. Pranayama, restorative postures, some dynamic movement, and lots of guided meditation will take us in deep, where we can make profound shifts in the energy body, covering ground much more quickly than is possible in the physical body. Please bring a blanket or any bolsters/pillows you may have. Some will be provided, but the more the merrier with restorative poses! This class is 60 minutes in length.
Sibyl Buck is a passionate teacher who’s warm love for her students is palpable. Teaching is Sibyl’s third career, after successful stints as a high-fashion model in the ’90’s, and later as a touring bass player and back-up vocalist, which careers took her several times around the world. She brings the depth of her life experience to her teaching, which is rich in metaphor, insight and authenticity. Sibyl is currently enrolled in the year-long Yoga Therapy Certificate program at Loyola Marymount University, taught by Larry Payne, Leslie Kaminoff, Dr. Eden Goldman, Dr. Rick Morris, among many other health care and yoga professionals, and her offerings as a yoga teacher are devoted to health and well being. Sibyl’s influence from Annie Carpenter, Jasmine Leib, Jillian Pranksy and Maty Ezraty is evidenced by a style balanced between strength-building, alignment focused movement, and deeply meditative and relaxed stillness. Sibyl is an anatomy enthusiast, which knowledge she shares during class, leading students to a deeper understanding of the why and how of yoga. Expect to find yourself propped up by pillows, blankets and blocks at least once, and prepare for maximum yoga bliss! Sibyl will be returning for her third year to co-lead the Yoga Village with Maria Calderon.
