BUDOKON YOGA PRIMARY SERIES/ INTRODUCTION Workshop

BUDOKON YOGA PRIMARY SERIES/ INTRODUCTION Workshop

Budokon Yoga is a style of yoga codified and popularized by martial arts and yoga master Cameron Shayne beginning in 2001. The foundation of this style is the Budokon Yoga Primary Series. This series consists of 7 intelligently assembled sections of slow and controlled movements designed to improve mobility, agility, flexibility and strength. The techniques are learned through repetition and precision, the emphasis being on the transitions from posture to posture, rather than the holding of postures. The purpose of this workshop is to gain muscular strength, cardiovascular stamina, as well as joint mobility and familiarize the student with the Series.
