ROPE YOGA

With Rope wall yoga. By using the ropes, we change our relationship to gravity and can use our own body weight as traction on the spine. Working with motion helps to break through stiffness and create freedom in the joints so that movements become possible that were not possible before. When we are hanging on the ropes, the degree of muscular effort is substantially reduced, making it possible to stay in asana (postures) for a longer period of time. The breath circulates with more freedom, which benefits the physiological body. This freedom moves beyond the physical and the leads to freedom in the mind, which becomes expansive, calm, and stable.
