Series 1
Yoga For Absolute Beginners
by David Procyshyn

Level:

Beginner

Duration: 6 Weeks

Commitment Per Week: 2 Classes and 1 Tutorial

Goal:
To learn the yoga basics from the perspective
of an absolute beginner. The focus will be on
classes that move through gentle poses while
being careful and emphasizing alignment. Each
class builds on the one before it, finishing with
class 12, which will challenge the student the
most.

NOTE
Some classes require
props; the props are
listed on the website
below each video.

Focus:
Dont push yourself. Make sure that even when
you feel uncomfortable that you can relax and
breathe deeply. Muscles stretch best when you
are aware of them as they are stretching, and
they stretch even better when you consciously
relax them.
Apply the principles of core activation as much
as you can, so you are always protecting your
spine. Have patience with yourself and listen to
your body. If you are quite sore the next day,
take a break until you feel ready for the next
class.

Benefits:
This series of classes is great for those who are
new to yoga or have not done a lot of stretching in the past. It is designed to get your muscles used to being stretched, while minimizing
soreness. After 6 weeks, not only will you feel
more flexible, but you will be able to take on
more challenging classes.

When To Do Each Class:


This program is meant to fit your schedule, so
set up your yoga classes when they work for
you. Keep in mind that it is best to plan a class
when you have enough time both before and
after the session to settle into and transition out
of the class. Also, its a good idea to leave a
day between classes so your body can rest.

What Are Tutorials?:


Tutorials are optional and are for those who are
looking to go into more depth with yoga anatomy. They can be done at any point during that
particular week and are designed to teach you
important principles of alignment.

What Are Shorter Classes?:


We provide additional, shorter class options if
you are looking to do more. Each one is chosen to complement that particular stage of
your program by helping improve your bodys
strength and flexibility.

What Are Alternatives?:


Along with your weekly list of classes are alternatives - classes you can do if you would prefer, for whatever reason, to do a different class.

Programs
Series 7
Ongoing Beginner Yoga Program
by David Procyshyn

Level:
Beginner

Duration: 8 Weeks

Commitment Per Week: 3 Classes

Goal:
The primary goal is to encourage you to maintain a regular yoga practice and help you continue to progress once you have completed the
Absolute Beginners Program.

Focus:
The focus is to continue improving. This
program is designed to increase the level of
difficulty gradually and safely, while continuing
to challenge you. At times, you may be asked
to move into a pose that you find difficult, so
if you feel like its too much, its perfectly fine
to leave it out. Focus on your breath and have
patience.

Benefits:
Along with improved flexibility, strength and
balance, yoga inspires a deeper sense of calm
and ease in your body and mind. Yoga reduces
fatigue, decreases anxiety, cuts stress, lifts
your mood, improves sleep, reduces pain,
lowers cholesterol and generally improves
quality of life.

When To Do Each Class:


This program is designed to honour your
already busy schedule, providing some
flexibility around when classes are done. One
of the two classes listed can be completed
during either of the two days they are allotted
to. Set up your classes when they work for you,
keeping in mind that it is best to plan a class
when you have enough time, both before and
after, to settle into and transition out of the
class.

NOTE
Some classes do require
props; the props are listed
with the class on the
website.

Weekly Structure:
With the exception of Saturday, you will be
doing one class for every two-day period.
Within each two-day period you have two
choices, a shorter or a longer class, depending
on your available time and how youre feeling
that day.
This program is specifically designed to progress as a beginner student, but it is not rigid.
You will see significant results if you follow it
closely, but feel free to make changes, or even
miss a class, if you need to.

What Are Alternatives?


Along with your weekly list of classes are alternatives - classes you can do if you would prefer, for whatever reason, to do a different class.
They allow you to choose, for example, to do a
mellow or shorter class when the first option is
a rigorous or longer one.

Series 2
Beginner Progressing to
Intermediate
by David Procyshyn

Level:
Beginner

Duration: 8 Weeks

Commitment Per Week: 5 Classes

Goal:
Your goal is to progress from a beginner to an
intermediate student. Classes are chosen from
a wide range of teachers and styles and each
weekly set is designed to help you develop the
strength, focus and flexibility you need to move
forward.

Focus:
Many of these classes will push you out of your
comfort zone. There will be many poses that
you simply cant do. Its perfectly fine to leave
them out. Focus on your breath and when you
move into an uncomfortable edge, try to do it
without tensing your body or quickening your
breath. Have patience with yourself.

Benefits:
You will gradually feel stronger and more flexible, as well as a deeper sense of calm, as you
progress through the eight weeks. Your body
will open up in ways it never has and you will
learn a lot about yourself as you try things you
havent done before. The optional meditations
and breathing exercises will help you relax.

When To Do Each Class:


This program is meant to fit your schedule, so
set up your yoga classes when they work for
you. Keep in mind that it is best to plan a class
when you have enough time both before and
after the session to settle into and transition out
of the class. Also, its a good idea to leave a
day between classes when your body is
sore or you need to take a break.

Weekly Meditations:
You will listen to one guided audio meditation
along with each weekly list of classes. Practicing these regularly will greatly enhance your
experience of the program by helping you rest,
relax and sleep better. Each one is chosen to
complement the particular stage you are on.

NOTE
Some classes require
props; the props are
listed on the website
below each video.

Breathing Exercises:
Youll also do one guided breathing exercise
along with each weekly list of classes. These
simple techniques will have a surprising impact
on your mental clarity, calm and energy levels
by helping dissolve anxiety and by infusing the
body with vitality. They are meant to be done
in stages, so stay with the current exercise, if
youre not ready to move on. Visit the Yoga
Breathing section for more detailed instructions.

What Are Alternatives?:


Along with your weekly list of classes are alternativesclasses you can do if you would prefer, for whatever reason, to do a different class.
They allow you to choose, for example, to do a

Programs
Series 4
Intermediate to Advanced
Power Yoga
by David Procyshyn

Level:
Intermediate
Advanced

Duration: 6 Weeks

Commitment Per Week: 4 Classes

Goal:
The goal is to get stronger, become more
flexible, challenge yourself with difficult classes
and feel amazing!
Classes in this program are chosen from a wide
range of teachers and styles and each weekly
set will help you develop the strength, focus
and exibility you need to move forward.

Focus:

NOTE
Some classes do require
props; the props are listed
with the class on the
website.

Many of these classes will push you out of your


comfort zone and there will be many poses that
you simply cant do; it is perfectly ne to leave
them out. Focus on your breath and when you
move into the uncomfortable edge, try to do it
without tensing your body or quickening your
breath. Have patience with yourself.

What are the Alternatives?:

Benefits:

Resting Classes:

Power yoga is known for its ability to challenge


you, both physically and mentally. The inherent
physical demand of power yoga will build your
strength rapidly and your body may open up in
ways it never has before. You will most likely
try things you have never done and learn a lot
about yourself. The weekly resting classes will
help you recuperate, relax and sleep better.

Do your weekly resting class whenever you feel


the need to rest in between challenging power
classes. These gentle classes are just as important, since they allow the body to
recuperate and relax.

When To Do Each Class:


This program is meant to t your schedule, so
set up your yoga classes when they work for
you. Keep in mind that it is best to plan a class
when you have enough time both before and
after the session to settle into and transition out
of the class. Also, its a good idea to leave a
day between classes when your body is sore or
you need to rest.

Along with your weekly list of classes are


alternatives - classes you can do if you would
prefer, for whatever reason, to do a different
class. They allow you to, for example, choose
to take a class with a different teacher or focus,
when the rst option doesnt resonate with you.

Yoga
Programs
Series 5
Yoga for Office Workers
by David Procyshyn

Level:
Beginner

Duration: 6 Weeks

Commitment Per Week: 3 Classes

Goal:
To help prevent the many problems created by
sitting at the computer for long periods of time,
including carpal tunnel syndrome, frozen shoulder, neck pain, head aches, back pain, chronic
stress and chronic fatigue. If you already have
one of these issues, this program will help alleviate the symptoms and potentially move you
toward being pain-free.

NOTE
Some classes do require
props; the props are listed
with the class on the
website.

Focus:
The best thing for your body is to do Davids
class, Yoga for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome,
often. It is by far the best class that you can do
if you sit at a desk for more than four hours a
day. The more often you do this class, the better you will feel.
However, if you need a change, feel free to do
the Alternative Class, particularly if its a class
that you experience a lot of benefit from, or if it
focuses on a problem area for you.
As is the case with all classes, avoid pushing
yourself. Make sure that even when you feel
uncomfortable that you can relax and breathe
deeply.

Benefits:
This program has one benet in mind: to become (or remain) pain-free. The schedule is
structured to target problem areas quickly by
stretching muscles that are chronically tight
and strengthening muscles that help re-align
the body in a healthy way.

When To Do Each Class:


This program is meant to t your schedule, so
set up your yoga classes when they work for
you. Keep in mind that it is best to plan a class
when you have enough time both before and
after the session to settle into and transition out
of the class. Also, if your body is feeling tired or
sore, its a good idea to rest.

What are the Shorter


Classes?
We provide additional, shorter class options if
you are looking to do more. Each one is chosen to complement that particular stage of
your program by helping improve your bodys
strength and exibility.

What are the Alternatives?


Along with your weekly list of classes are alternatives - classes you can do if you would prefer, for whatever reason, to do a different class.

What are the Meditations ?


It is extremely helpful to add a meditation or
relaxation to your daily practice, since the
nervous system plays a key role in tension and
pain. We have included weekly meditations that
you can incorporate when you have the time.

Programs
Series 3
Yoga Program For Runners
by David Procyshyn

Level:
Beginner
Intermediate

Duration: 6 Weeks

Commitment Per Week: 4 Classes

Goal:
This yoga program directly addresses the
physical demands that are part of an intense
training regime, keeping you injury-free, improving your performance and shortening your
recovery time.

Focus:
The focus is simple - to target key muscles that
play a significant role in running and are often
responsible for injuries. Muscles that often
become tight are stretched. Muscles that often
become weak are strengthened.
There will most likely be poses that you simply
cant do; it is perfectly fine to leave them out.
Focus on your breath and when you move into
an uncomfortable edge, try to do it without
tensing your body or quickening your breath.
Have patience with yourself.

Benefits:
Too many runners suffer from bad backs and
knees, often forcing them to abandon running
altogether. Not only will you feel stronger and
a greater range of motion when youre running,
but your loose muscles will also have better
access to healthy blood and oxygen, speeding
recovery and reducing the risk of injury.

When To Do Each Class:


This program is meant to fit your schedule, so
set up your yoga classes when they work for
you. Keep in mind that it is best to plan a class
when you have enough time both before and
after the session to settle into and transition out
of the class. Also, its a good idea to leave a
day between classes when your body is sore or
you need to rest.

NOTE
Some classes require
props; the props are
listed on the website
below each video.

Weekly Structure:
Each week you need to schedule in three 2030 minute classes and one full-length class
(approximately 60 minutes). The three shorter
classes are meant to be done before or after
your run, while the full-length class can be
done anytime during the week.
For the full-length class, there is the option of
doing an upbeat or a mellow class, depending
on how you are feeling that day. The upbeat
class will be more of a vinyasa or power flow,
whereas the mellow alternative will be a more
gentle hatha, yin or restorative class.

program, choose your

intend to do each class.
