$75 per couple/$40 single student - preregistration only
The Best Valentine Gift, Partner Yoga is a unique physical and spiritual practice that combines poses and exercises in which partners rely on each other's support to keep correct body alignment, balance, and concentration. In a deeper sense, this physical support fosters deeper feelings of nurture and acceptance. When we feel safe and supported, we develop the courage to trust others & the strength to confront our fears and embrace our true selves. This workshop will include circle ceremony, partner poses, flow sequence, thai stretches, and the ultimate chocolate meditation. Bring a friend, spouse, partner, parent, child or come single and be partnered.

Check out last year's Valentine's Partner Yoga Event. We had a blast!

RESTORE & RENEW WORKSHOP - SERIES 16- with Lisa Pumper & Joy Kochmer
Sunday, February 17, 2008 --- 12:30 - 2:30pm
$50 preregistration only
Join our very own Lisa & Joy and experience a healing blend of Restorative Yoga, Thai Yoga, Aromatherapy & Meditation. Learn to relax, rest, cope with stress, and retain a balanced outlook on life; all at the heart of living well. In this wonderful two hour workshop, students will learn that stress is a psychological (mind/body) event that takes place when our system is overwhelmed by an experience, whether physical, mental or emotional. It can be long term or sudden, something as simple as a loud noise or as complex as the continuing strain of a difficult relationship. A physical injury, or the exhaustion of trying to hold down a job and raise a family at the same time both create stress. Stress untreated affects our general health and well being and leads to serious illness. Say Lisa and Joy: "Our mission embraces, supports and celebrates your intention for a HAPPY, HEALTHY and VIBRANT life. We look forward to pampering you!"
This class is limited to 16 lucky students. Sign up early at the front desk or call us to reserve your space.
