Living Joyfully: April News


Here's the scoop on our new schedule for April:
  • Garrick is joining our Saturday morning line-up with Power 1 at 10 am. His classes are great - I've been catching Deep Flow on Sunday nights lately and loving it. He puts together a really fun & thoughtful class.Garrick
  • Sima has her own class now: Basics on Thursday nights 5:30-6:30. Everyone's been enjoying her version of the free Saturday Intro, and Basics will have a similar vibe. Basics is a great class for beginners and anyone wanting to go deeper into the roots of Yoga.
  • Our Express classes are now 55 minutes long, leaving a little extra time to get to and from work.
  • Prenatal will meet on April 18 only; look for an expanded schedule of Prenatal (and possibly postnatal) classes coming in May.
  • Erin (that's me!) is picking up Restore on Thursday mornings at 10am. I love teaching Restore and am excited about starting Thursday mornings with such peaceful energy.
We'll be celebrating our one year anniversary in May! We opened on May 2, 2009. So save the date May 1 for an open house neighborhood get together in the afternoon. 21 Taras

Have a great week everyone!
Namaste,
Erin

"How much pleasure and satisfaction do you dare to wish for in what you do?"
- Ruthy Alon, senior Feldenkrais teacher
Improve the Way you Run
Improve the Way You Run!
 Saturday April 10th, 1-6pm (the complete version) $75 prepaid, $80 drop in

For many of us the way we develop our running style is by starting to run - we just "run the way we run." Rarely is there a context where we can return to exploring our running to see if it is as economical, as powerful or as enjoyable as it could be. We might attempt to follow instructions from the experts on the "best" foot strikes or arm swings or vary the shoes we wear - but is there a way we could we find an internal compass which could reliably lead us to strong, efficient, and graceful running, directed from the inside by our own experience and awareness?

In this workshop we will do several Awareness Through Movement® lessons which can both clarify our experience of the mechanics of running as well as awaken our capacity to attend to many details of ourselves as we run. This workshop is open to those who compete in races, those who have never run, those who used to run but it hurt too much, and those who think that running is impossible. The short running parts of the workshop are optional for those with injuries, or who do not run, and the learning and discoveries in the floor lessons (like most things Feldenkrais) can be applied to myriad aspects of life beyond running.

If you'd like to repeat this workshop, ask us about a discount for repeat students. To register for either or both workshops, click here
