Usher in the New Year with a special holiday class guiding you through 108 Sun Salutations at UpDog Yoga Rochester


Sun Salutations (Surya Namaskar A in Sanskrit) are sequential postures designed to detoxify and cleanse as you generate your own body heat by linking breath and movement through the series of repetitive postures.


108 sounds like a lot! - and you may not reach that number, but you will be surprised at your strength and how many rounds you can do while reaping the rewards of the cleansing effect.

All levels welcome as this is a guided class. Modifications will be offered from the knees, etc. with ample time for resting poses in between.

Do you have a hangover from an amazing time on New Year’s Eve, just feeling tired or fatigued, or want to start off the New Year with improved health and wellness? 

Dr. Brian McCarroll has the cure! 


Join Dr. Brian for our first ever New Year’s hangover breathing class to learn a breathing method that can get rid of any hangover or general sleepiness and fatigue in less than half an hour. You'll need to do some breathing, but it will make you feel better with every round - until you start feeling better than just fine, and even great!



This 60 minute breathwork class includes electrolyte infused water before we begin, breathing techniques and light Yoga specifically designed to knock out a hangover, followed by tea and cacao after class. This breathing style is modified from regular breathwork class so if you are experienced with that you can still learn something new and feel great while you are doing it as well.

 

No prior breathwork experience needed. Dress in comfy, loose layers such as sweats. You will be profoundly changing your body's chemistry by breathing so for safety purposes we ask that pregnant women, people with uncontrolled high blood pressure or uncontrolled epilepsy do not participate in this particular breathwork class.

Dr. Brian McCarroll is a physical therapist graduate from Duke Medical School, who is passionate about helping people use their own bodies to reduce pain, stress, anxiety, regulate immune function and fight pain, especially chronic pain.  He has completed the 10 week Wim Hof Method fundamentals course, James Nestor's Breath, and breathwork instruction from Brian MacKenzie.

Friday, January 7

7:30PM-9:00PM


$20 per person ($25 door)


Location: Rochester

The Five Tibetan Rites are a yogic system of simple, yet incredibly energizing exercises that are said to have originated deep in the Himalayas 2,500 years ago and are still practiced as a daily ritual by many today.  Also known as the “Five Rites of Rejuvenation,” these asanas (postures) take only a few minutes to perform, but can dramatically increase physical strength and suppleness, as well as mental acuity.

  

New students to experienced yogis alike will enjoy learning the incredible power of these five simple postures – and discover a natural, powerful method for daily rejuvenation and growth!

  • Rejuvenates the body
  • Improves digestion
  • Prevents bone loss
  • Reduces back pain
  • Improves eyesight


The postures help focus energy on each of the seven primary chakra energy centers in our bodies, working to quickly open and spin the chakras, removing bad karmic seeds and replacing them with vitality and positive energy.  Done each day, the Rites are said to have amazing rejuvenation powers, perhaps even leading the practitioner to find his or her own Fountain of Youth!

Celebrate the January Full Moon with a powerful, creative drumming and meditation session led by Chuck McNabb, gifted Medium. Native American drums and rattles of various shapes and sizes will be provided, and feel free to bring your own instruments.  The drum circle embraces people of all ages and no prior drumming or meditation experience is necessary. 


Indigenous peoples of the world have for millennia gathered under the light of the Full Moon to dance and make music. The beat of the drums brings us in tune with the rhythms of nature to evoke and raise powerful currents of life energy. 


As participants relax, enjoy and explore the music, their natural creativity and curiosity emerges and the rhythms grow and change. Each person is able to express themselves through their individual instrument while simultaneously participating as part of a larger whole for a therapeutic experience - a new voice, a collective voice, emerges as we drum together and just have fun!

The movements are gentle and each person will work within their own range of motion.

Shamanism is an ancient healing tradition over 40,000 years old. Shamanic teachings focus on our connection to nature and all of creation.  Shamanism involves working with transcendental energies in the physical and spiritual world to heal and balance in this world. 


The Munay-Ki are a series of nine Empowerment Rites of Awakening passed down from the ancient Shamans of Peru.  "Munay" means "love and will" together with "ki" from the Japanese word for energy, combine to give the meaning:  Energy of Love 


Shaman Joe will educate the group about the "Great Rites of Enlightenment" of the Munay-Ki and perform the nine Rites for each participant amongst the support of the group.  Receiving these deep healing Rites is a very uplifting and personal experience to help you realize your sacred space, illuminate your spirit, open your heart, and align with your highest Self.  This powerful transformation will take place over two separate sessions. 


$90 cost includes attendance at both April 23 and June 4 sessions and all workshop materials, including a DVD and a Pi Stone selected especially for you.

BREATHE FREE!  This class is for anyone looking to expand their knowledge of proper breathing technique in daily life and/or fitness activities, those suffering from respiratory related issues, and Yoga/Fitness instructors interested in expanding their horizons in breathwork.  No prior fitness or breathwork experience needed.  Beginners are always welcome and you can join any of our weekly sessions anytime.


This breathwork class is inspired by the Wim Hof Method and its Tummo style breathwork, light Yoga-style stretching, and guided meditation specifically to help you focus on your mind.  We will focus on varying areas of your body and mind weekly to make long-lasting change.


You will develop control over systems that you otherwise hadn't thought possible. We will demonstrate this by showing you can do things like hold your breath much longer than you think, get in touch and gain control of your body.  These techniques will enable you to reduce stress, anxiety, pain and inflammation, improve sleep, endurance and athletic performance  - all by breathing in a manner that will start to allow you to use your chest, lungs, brain, and body more effectively. 


Things to think about after class are:  how you feel, how well you are able to go to sleep, how well you are able to maintain your sleep, how much energy you have, how your regular aches and pains feel, and your mood.  Group discussion  to address your questions, areas of interest, and progress will be addressed each week. 


Bring a yoga mat and comfortable warm clothing (rental mats available for $1).  Most people tend to get chilly during breathwork and having warmer options available allows you to focus more effectively on your breathing.  

Dr. Brian McCarroll is a physical therapist graduate from Duke Medical School, who is passionate about helping people use their own bodies to reduce pain, stress, anxiety, regulate immune function and fight pain, especially chronic pain.  He has completed the 10 week Wim Hof Method fundamentals course, James Nestor's Breath, and breathwork instruction from Brian MacKenzie.
