Over the course of 4 sessions, this Gently Heated workshop at Healium Hot Yoga led by Heather Mroch will explore the first half of the Ashtanga Primary series. Participants will be invited to explore the practice through a self-determined lens to experience empowered decision making; trauma-informed Ashtanga that supports the creation of space for healing. This workshop will be guided by the values and spirit of peer work and mutual aid. Peer work is defined as mutual support where people connect based on shared lived experience.  The classes can be attended as a single event or as a series; the workshop builds towards the led half primary on the last session.
