TEACHER TRAININGS & WORKSHOPS

 

Jon has hosted retreats, teacher trainings and workshops in Hong kong, Japan, Thailand and here domestically in North America. To have more delicated time is something I wish I could have with all my students, so outside my public classes l am developing more workshop and retreats to help further develop those who seek more of the practice of Hatha Yoga. I value time more with each day, so in these events I will give all that I can to help elevate your personal practice.

NYRR YOGA FOR RUNNERS SERIES WITH JON WITT - NYC


Date: 9/20/2011 - 10/25/2011
Time: 7:15 PM - 8:15 PM

Help protect your joints with this exclusive class designed to help meet the needs of runner's bodies during training. A typical runner experiences too much pounding, tightening, and shortening of the muscles and not enough restorative, elongating, and loosening work. Yoga's internal focus centers your attention on your own body's movements rather than on an external outcome. Runners can use yoga practice to balance strength, increase range of motion, and train the body and mind. Yoga for Runners guides students through the proper yoga poses to use when stretching, as well as exercises to strengthen the core and help prevent injury. This class was exclusively created by Pure teachers in association with New York Road Runners.
