Partner Yoga

Partner poses are not only fun but also a great way to connect with your partner, whether you are lovers, siblings, or friends. Partner Yoga brings people together through movement, play, breath, touch, and intimacy.

The primary component that differentiates partner practice from individual practice is touch. We touch and are touched by others. You'll be forced to communicate effectively (to let each other know how the adjustments feel) and to act with sensitivity (to ensure that the amount of force you're using is appropriate).

As partners work together, supporting one another, you rely on each other’s support to keep correct body alignment, balance, and focus in a posture. When you feel physically supported, not only do you experience a yoga pose differently, but you also begin to allow yourself to trust someone else.

Partner Yoga is a healing art that teaches the fundamental value of joining and sharing with others. It demonstrates how we become more authentic and empowered through our willingness to open and connect with the world around us.
