JJ Gormley Calendar
Learn to move from your core; to blossom into yoga postures from your
inner strength; to awaken not only your internal alignment, but also
your alignment with the Source. Gifted yoga teacher JJ Gormley employs
a gentle, nonjudgmental teaching style that allows students to be where
they are in any given yoga pose and encourages them to accept and honor
that place. In this weeklong workshop, she will guide you through asana
practices that move you from your core, teaching you to find greater
strength. Anchored in your core, you will explore the forces in the body
that move in both directions, toward prakriti (what is tangible) and
purusha (what is intangible). When you are able to feel both forces simultaneously,
that is hatha yoga—the uniting of opposites. This week will extend your
edge, while also allowing you to understand, embrace, and celebrate your
unique needs. JJ will share how yoga practice can become a metaphor for
many of the great scriptures, such as the Bhagavad Gita, that have come
to us through the yoga tradition. JJ Gormley, RYT500, is the founder
and director of the Sun & Moon Yoga Studios in Virginia. She has a very
diverse background having studied from many traditions, most recently
the teachings of Desikachar. She has produced five yoga videos, a chanting
CD, and a DVD.
