Workshop Schedule & Details
Releasing & Healing our Emotional Body
through Postures & Breathwork
Friday April 14th, 6:30 - 8:30 PM CDT
Cost: $50 (or $220 for full weekend, 5 sessions)
It is said that the human being has a powerful guiding voice within; it is the voice of our intuition and wisdom. But this voice is commonly drowned out by the noise in our mind. The noise is often caused from chaotic or congested emotions from stress, depression, PTSD, or anxiety. In this workshop we will begin with a talk by Max, then move into a gentle breath-initiated movement sequence.
In the second half of the workshop will focus on floor postures and breath-work to release the mind and body from long-held emotions that impede our happiness and our ability to sleep well.
Bring your mat and writing materials.

Inner Axis Yoga and the Power of Intention: On & Beyond the Mat
Saturday April 15th, 10:00 - 12:00 PM CDT
Cost: $50 (or $200 for full weekend, 5 sessions)
Just as hydrogen and oxygen, depending on how they are mixed together, can produce either fire or water, posture practice and intention and breath depending on how they mixed together can produce either “just exercise,” or can revolutionize our lives. This graceful Inner Axis workshop begins very gently and then builds momentum. At the apex of heat and breath we move directly into a special sequence of postures, which bring the mind into stillness and the body into a new state of energy. This class is both challenging and very healing.

Some Doors Only Open From the Inside
Saturday April 15th, 2:00 - 4:00 PM CDT
Cost: $50 (or $200 for full weekend, 5 sessions)
"Genuinely life-changing."
"Turning point in my life."
"Major breakthrough."
"Highly valued catalyst in my therapy process."
Just a few of numerous comments of people having experienced a session of powerful breathwork with Max Strom. There’s a time for talking, and there’s a time to let our breath work for us and go beyond what we can rationally grasp to release our congested emotions from stress, depression, anxiety, or PTS. Emotions affect our breathing, for example: crying and laughing. But did you know that changing the pattern of our breathing influences our emotions?
An innovative method, simple techniques, and incredible results. The practices you will learn in this workshop take you to a calm and inspired state with new depths of insight. This workshop will include lecture, standing and seated breathing exercises. Bring writing materials. (not advised if you are pregnant)
