39th Annual Yoga Vacation in Jamaica with John Schumacher & Barbara Benagh (Attend WEEK 1, WEEK 2, or BOTH.)
For nearly 40 years John and Barbara have welcomed yogis to them for their annual trek to Negril, Jamaica. Negril is a relaxed resort on the west coast of Jamaica, one of the Caribbean’s most beautiful and lush islands and awonderful place to unwind and restore the soul. Negril is vibrant and brought alive by the people, their music, and a sultry climate perfect for rest and renewal. These two weeks in February, with all events outdoors, will be our return to February in Jamaica after three years away. Excited!
THE TEACHERS
John Schumacher is one of the most prominent and respected teachers in the Iyengar tradition and a senior certified teacher in that method. He is the director of Unity Woods Yoga Center where classes are available online. The clarity, humor and directness that John incorporates in his teaching help to guide students toward experiencing the richness and vitality that are possible through the practice of yoga. He lives in Potomac, MD.
Barbara Benagh’s unique teaching style draws from many traditions. A teacher since 1974, Barbara has a quirky, slow style that employs evocative language and conscious breathing to encourage an internal, yet technical, approach to yoga. With good humor, she teaches patience and attention with the goal of creating a yoga practice that is economical, effective, and elegant. She lives in Durham, NC .
Barbara and John got to know each other on a long flight to India and, while their yoga paths have diverged over the years, they relish this annual get together. Their very different teaching styles demonstrate how diverse interpretations of Hatha Yoga can be respectful, informative, and complimentary in a way that inspires students to create an authentic practice.
