Upcoming Events

(WRJ) SomaFlow
Sundays in August, 11 am—Noon

Leslie

This class combines SATYA with moderate flow. For those new to this slow, soft form of somatic practice known as SATYA—Sensory Awareness Training for Yoga Attunement—it supports the pulse of life.

In practicing these movements, we move out of the ego and beyond conscious control, connecting to the deep interior of the psyche. Gliding, undulating, and pulsating, we move with little effort, sensing how movement emerges from within.

As we penetrate layer by layer into our interior, we experience not only physical, but psychic absorption, or Samapatti. This “soaking inward” is profoundly healing for both body and mind..

SATYA movements are a perfect complement to asana training, offering non-weight-bearing, restorative movement. Our subsequent flow practice will mirror some of the opening movements, but in a weight bearing, more active capacity to create an organic and progressive journey that will leave you feeling whole and grounded for the week ahead.

Everyone is welcome! Sign up for one or all 5.

(WRJ) Gentle + Restorative
August 8, 4:30–6 pm

Miriah

Gentle + Restorative class is the perfect way to nourish and restore the body, psyche and nervous system. A lovely complement to more active styles of yoga practice, the class is taught in a supportive environment and open to all levels, for anyone looking for a quiet practice. Props (bolsters, blankets, blocks) are used liberally to support the body. This nourishing support allows you to eliminate strain and open the body through passive stretching.

(WRJ) Saturday Evening Sound Bath
August 22, 6:30–8 pm

Shambu

A sound bath is an immersive and healing sensory experience for the body, mind and soul. An array of Instruments that are tuned to specific healing frequencies are played while the group is lying down in a deeply relaxed, meditative state. Scientific research continues to reveal the power of these frequencies’ effects on the body and mind, which shift them into profound harmony. We begin the session by setting an intention for the journey, whether you need to manifest, release, shift or heal. Our intentions are followed by brief pranayama (breath work) and a short guided meditation before being serenaded in a high vibrational soundscape including singing bowls, chimes, gong, drum and more! Feel the effects of these potent healing vibrations for yourself and leave feeling a renewed sense of inner peace. 

All ages and abilities are welcome, wear comfortable clothes and arrive with an open heart and mind!
