LES LEVENTHAL WORKSHOPS
w/ Les Leventhal
click here for printable flyer
We are honored to have our friend and senior vinyasa-flow teacher Les Leventhal back again for a series of weekend workshops that will inspire and delight your body and senses. You will not want to miss this opportunity to practice with this fun-loving, compassionate and moving teacher. Les has trained extensively with and is an assistant for Ana Forrest, among many other amazing teachers such as Stephanie Snyder and Tias Little. He currently teaches at Yoga Tree in San Francisco.
Serenity Flow by Candlelight: Friday, 6-8pm
Practicing Vinyasa by candlelight is a
serene practice that allows you to move
more deeply inward to the spirit of the
asana through a deeply relaxed state. We
will spend time on all aspects of the
practice - Mantra, Mudra, Pranayama,
and Asana, diving into each family of
poses - Twists, Backbends, Forward
Folds, Hip Openers, and Arm Balances.
For All Level Flow Practitioners.
Arm Balancing for All Levels: Saturday, 9-11:30am
Arm Balances are some of yoga’s most exhilarating and fun poses to practice. Learn to safely defy gravity, starting with a single breath. In this workshop you will strengthen your core to better support your arm balances. Build upper body strength which will help support and build healthier wrists, elbows and shoulders. Engage the legs, so they don’t take refuge in Savasana. Begin cultivating awareness of your body being upside down and moving through space, while surfing from one pose to another. Yoga should be satisfying and fun, not a chore. This workshop will launch you there. For All Level Flow Practioners.
108 Sun Salutations - Celebrating the Vernal Equinox: Sunday, 9am-12pm
Looking to let something go? Looking to create space for something new and unimaginable? 108 Suns is a traditional practice that builds inner heat through the harmonizing of breath and motion, guiding the mind into meditation. Moving together through the 108 Suns is an opportunity to release those things that are no longer serving us or those around us and open our bodies, minds and spirits to the unexpected and unimaginable - new beginnings and maybe even new selfless intentions.
Why 108? There are 54 letters of the sanskrit alphabet each having their masculine and feminine qualities (54x2=108). Krishna is said to have 108 gopis (maidservants). The diameter of the Sun is 108 times the diameter of the Earth. There are 12 houses and 9 planets in astrology (12x9=108).
There are several variations of Suns from different systems of yoga. We will incorporate a few, dedicating some Suns away, cultivating awareness within on others and all the while cultivating that space that allows the spirit to flow in and around a place of feeling, not thinking - always returning to the breath.
Cost: $75 for all 3 workshops by 3/17, otherwise $35 each |

THE WHEELS OF LIFE - INTRODUCTION OF THE CHAKRA SYSTEM
w/ Melissa Cooley
The word Chakra is Sanskrit for wheel or turning, and signifies one of seven basic energy centers within the subtle body. Chakras can have various levels of activity - when they're "open", they are considered operating in normal fashion. Some chakras are not open enough, or underactive, and to compensate, other chakras are overactive, causing us to be out of balance.
We will review the chakras, and discuss how they relate to our energetic body, and therefore our daily lives. With this knowledge we'll bring awareness to our asana practice through a supportive gentle practice appropriate for all levels. It will be followed by a short guided meditation technique that helps to balance the chakra system.
Melissa Cooley has led public classes and workshops for over 8 years, particularly in Southern Oregon and Northern California. Her training and versatile approach has made her a popular, sought-out teacher for all types of students.

Cost: $25 by April 7th, otherwise $30 |

DONATION SUNDAYS
In an effort to do our part in this challenging economy, we offer Donation Sundays! Once a month, on the first Sunday of the month, all classes are purely donation-based. Which means, whatever you can afford!
The suggested donation is a minimum of $5 to cover a portion of our overhead, but feel free to donate whatever the pocketbook allows, from $1 to $15 (the regular drop-in).
You must register and sign in with the front desk. An anonymous donation box will be available outside each class.
Please help spread the word - more people doing yoga means a happier, healthier and more stable community! |
