Dec. 6 & Feb. 7 @ SMC • 1165 Magnolia Avenue, Larkspur
Bring your healing intentions and join me for an afternoon of yoga. We will begin our practice with meditation, and together, create a sacred space for our journey, calling forth our intentions. With pranayama, we will open ourselves from the inside, out to infinite possibility. Using our voices, we will learn simple chants to enliven and align the energy channels in the body. Progressing to a classical asana practice, we will incorporate standing poses, backbends, core strengthening, and inversions. The asana practice will be sealed with a deeply restorative savasana.
All levels welcome! Cost: $30. Register online.
Spring Cleaning: Explore the Yoga Principle of Saucha (pdf)

Join me for a day of saucha practice, including meditation, the ritual of energetic cleansing, asana (postures) and enjoy the beautifully prepared organic food at Green Gulch. Saucha is purification on all levels. It includes the physical cleanliness of bathing your body, maintaining an orderly home, eating healthy food and drinking clean water. It involves mental clarity and speech that refrains from emotionally-charged obsessions and addictions. Saucha is a pre-condition for enjoying inner peace.
All levels welcome. Bring 2 or 3 blankets, yoga mat and a journal or notebook. Cost: $95 in advance. Includes lunch. Register online.
