Dear (Contact First Name),
March has come bringing its burst of pure gold poppies around town.
I'll never forget the first time I saw the blanket of color these poppies provide in front of the Floating Stone Casitas. With warming day temperatures and clear sunny skies, spring in Tubac is heavenly!!
Did you know that the ionization process we use to filter our water turns our pools into the equivalent of natural mineral spring water!! And, did you know that we use a Japanese medical device that then re-ionizes all of our our drinking water, making it some of the healthiest water you can find. We can't figure out why other wellness centers and spas aren't copying us as the technology is readily available. In fact, when you visit the Floating Stone, we can show you how you can turn your home into a natural health springs spa!! Imagine showering, swimming, and drinking water in your own home without the smell and danger of chlorine.
This month we have three aqua-massage training classes. If you have ever wanted to become certified as an aqua massage therapist or just learn how to float your friends and loved ones, now is the time to sign up for one of these classes and learn from two great teachers. See the descriptions below on the two classes on Healing Dance and the one on Aquatic Massage.

Sherman Rouse - Stone Sculpture at the Floating Stone Inn
When strolling through the Floating Stone, it is impossible to miss the extraordinary stone sculptures that blesses our patios and outside common areas. This art has been with us since we opened last June and it is time to tell their tale.
Sherm's use of found and recycled object has gained him a reputation as having a unique eye and a great sense of humor. There is a real sense of New Life infused into his work that commands attention. He has recently branched out making stone sculptures from the native rocks in Arizona. A resident of Arizona, Sherm finds much of his inspiration in what other people throw away. Not a bad thing in this day and age. Sherm worked for thirty years as an elementary school teacher before putting his Art degree and passion into his Creations. He loves to do commissions and accepts any challenge with unmatched and aritistry and enthusiasm.
Each stone sculpture is individually priced and available for sale. If you fine a piece that calls to you, simply ask us for help at our reception desk and we'll be happy to assist you in moving them to their new-found home.

Ahhhh-qua massage
While soaking in your
double-filtered, ionized pool at the new Floating Stone Inn and Aqua Spa, you might ask:
Does it get any better than this? Before you answer, try 50 minutes of gravity free stretching that helps joint and nerve decompression.
Or a water massage with someone gently kneading the stress points in your neck and back. Um, what was the question again?
