Whit Hornsberger

We are pleased to welcome Whit Hornsberger at City ZEN as a visiting teacher for Vinyasa Krama and Yin Yoga from the 11th to the 28th February. Vinyasa Krama refers to practicing a sequence of asanas that are synchronized with the breath. Rather than performing each asana as an independent pose disconnected from the whole, vinyasa krama mimics the flowing energy of the universe. The mind, body and breath are unified into a state of harmony. Vinyasa krama also uses variations of each asana to open the potential of the mind and body. Yin Yoga is a slower-paced, more meditative version of the popular physical and spiritual discipline of yoga. In Yin yoga, the poses are held for a long period of time to target the connective tissues (such as the ligaments) rather than focusing on the muscles. As a result, the asanas are more passive holds, with little muscular engagement.
