Thus, teachers and presenters might feel unable to fully reply to comments, questions, and concerns within the moment and prefer to take some time for reflection before responding.<\/p>\n<p>The whole foundation of yoga can be really fascinating, and there&#8217;s so much to learn in each interaction that it might also be difficult for session leaders to be proactive about participant communication. For that reason, there might be longer silences as space is made for students who want to speak up.<\/p>\n<p>On this particular day, after a few guided communal movements and shared inhalations and exhalations, the session concluded with all feeling more prepared to take on the day with a heightened depth of awareness.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Catrin Waters HAF-UVA Intern This past Friday, a lovely moment of peace was shared across continents with a short yoga class led by High Atlas Foundation-University of Virginia Intern, Catrin Waters.
