Master Class: Building Inner Fire 

Friday, January 4, 2019 from 1:00pm – 4:00pm

The belly center, the third chakra, is the hearth of the body. In yoga it is necessary to stoke the fire within, yet unfortunately there is often constriction in the gut due to stress and emotional holding. This class focuses on opening the belly through dynamic and passive poses. We emphasis twists and supported backbends to ignite the inner fire. At the end of class we practice pranayama to spread the glow of heat throughout the body. $65.00

Prana 

Saturday, January 5, 2019 from 10:00am – 1:00pm

Prana is the deep life force. It is breath, blood and lymph and animates all the cells and tissues of the body. However due to compression and stagnation, the blood and prana become restricted. In the mid winter and after the holiday it is common for there to be inertia and sluggishness, compromising the flow of prana. In this class come prepared to generate blood flow through dynamic and supported postures by bringing blood flow to all the tissues of the body. This aids in nourishing the tissues, healing chronic pain and bringing vitality to the body and mind. $60.00


Vibration 

Saturday, January 5, 2019 from 2:30pm – 5:30pm

In yoga it is thought that the entire universe including the body is made up of vibration. All that vibrates produces sound currents that flow like rivers. In this class we animate the channels of the body through breath, sound and movement. Not only the sound OM, but numerous other healing sounds open up the channels of the subtle body. Come prepared to sense how vibration resonates in the innermost chamber of your spine, spinal cord and cranium. $60.00


Virya 

Sunday, January 6, 2019 from 9:30am – 11:30am

In Sanskrit, virya is vitality, strength and resolve. It is the source of longevity and health. In yoga we cultivate virya through poses like the Warrior Pose and the Hero Pose. In this class we practice cultivating virility in order to build staying power and firm resolve. Come prepared to cultivate virya in order to bring greater energy, power and focus to your life. $45.00


Gravity as Therapy: Why Savasana is the Most Important Pose 

Sunday, January 6, 2019 from 12:00pm – 2:00pm

Much of yoga as in life involves learning to let go. In a yoga practice, the “corpse” pose, often the very last position and its corollary, yoga nidra or the yogic sleep require a profound letting go. This process involves not only physical relaxation but a kind of psychic relinquishing. In this class come prepared to drop into states of profound inner relaxation in order to create more ease and lightness in your body and mind. $45.00
