Playful Transitions and Variations of Down Dog and Up Dog in Yoga – PAMA
May 22, 2025 @ 11:33 am - 11:45 pm EDT
Join PAMA for this yoga session inspired by their current exhibition, “Oh My Dog!”
Downward and Upward Facing Dog are yoga poses that originated from observing dogs and appreciating the gracious way they stretch and move. Sometimes, teachers call these poses using shortcuts: down-dog and up-dog.
This one-hour-20-minute class led by Tere Lopez intends to resonate with an art exhibition about dogs! It will navigate through the dog poses (up and down dog) carefully and playfully. We will use them as a baseline to transition to other basic postures and explore different variations of it, some simple dogs, soft and quiet, and others funky and revolutionary! With this consistent body canine imitation, we may discover what humans have to do with dogs and each other.
The class has a maximum of 20 participants. Please bring a mat and any other yoga props required. Public: $17.50 +HST, Members: $15 +HST
