Weekly Series: Learn To Meditate – Drop-ins welcome!
January 10th – April 4th, 2010
Dive deeper into the realms of your mind! Meditation is the art of looking inside and discovering one’s own inner being. Meditation leads us not only to totally new inner experiences, but helps us also to transform our day-to-day life into a better, more meaningful and more fulfilling existence. Each class will focus on pranayama breathing techniques to use throughout the day, in-the-moment to instantly relax the chattering mind, relive negative emotions (anger, anxiety, regret, fear, etc.) & re-energize . We will finish with a Deep Guided Relaxation Meditation to prepare us to flow into the week ahead. All Levels are welcomed.

Mama-Shanti! A Pre-Natal Yoga Workshop
Learn to Practice Safely and Effectively During your Pregnancy, with Tara Rice
Saturday March 27, 2010
Join Tara Rice for a two-hour prenatal yoga workshop. While yoga offers many health benefits to pregnant women, and may be safely practiced throughout a pregnancy, adjusting one’s practice for pregnancy requires special attention. As Patricia Walden advises, it is important during pregnancy to “do poses that help create space between the rib cage and abdomen, which will increase the comfort level and create more room for the baby.” This two hour class will feature a 90 minute Baptiste Vinyasa practice tailored to pregnancy. Pregnant women will learn how to modify poses so that they can practice safely in a regular yoga class. We’ll also practice poses that are beneficial for pregnant women, and that provide comfort. We will end the workshop with 30 minutes of Q&A. The workshop is appropriate for women at all stages of pregnancy, who have been practicing yoga for at least three months.
Time: 1:30 PM – 3:30 PM
Cost: Early Bird by March 21st: $35, Regular $45

A word from Stacy: I have been a student and teacher of Yoga for 10 yrs. I discovered Baptiste Power Yoga in 2005 and knew I was home. This is REAL YOGA for REAL PEOPLE. I will not ask you to chant or take your foot behind your head, there is nothing mystical or magical about what I teach. I WILL ask that you show up and challenge yourself like never before. I will offer you a practice that will allow your most powerful self to shine! All you have to do is get on your mat, get willing and get READY! I am a certified Baptiste teacher and have trained many teachers and students to share this practice. I travel world wide with Baron Baptiste assisting him at his teacher trainings and bootcamps. I’ve spent over 1000 hours in training and or assisting with Baron. If I’m not at the studio or away on a bootcamp, you can find me hanging out with my husband Dave and my 3 kids, Jake-12, Kera-11 and Luke-9.
