Unwind this Summer - With Yoga

>> Tuesday, May 31, 2011

Summer is almost here! Or at least I think it is. Our spring time here in the Rockies has been cold and wet. We need the moisture, and after knowing the tragedies other staes are experiencing through natural disasters, I am not going to complain at all about our minor weather inconveniences. 


Please remember in your prayers, all of those who have suffered great loss.

I want to invite you to take advantage of yoga opportunites this summer; join us for a wonderful series - Experiencing Your Gifts, taught by my dear friend (and experienced teacher), Sarah Hogan and myself.  Call 719.385.7920 to register by June 13.

Or share a Saturday morning rise and shine with me here at my home studio.

There will also be yoga hikes - opportunities to celebrate life in God's creation, while breathing in the surrounding beauty. All the details are below.


Questions? Please call me. 719.352.9272.

Take the time this summer to really unwind. Connect with God, with friends and family, with self. Seek gratitude and enjoy the gifts and blessings God has given. And be sure to share your joy with others.

Shalom,
Pamela

General Information

It is best to have a nearly empty stomach and wear non-restrictive clothing for yoga class. Yoga is practiced with bare feet, and traditionally shoes are not worn into a yoga studio. You do not need to be young and flexible to practice Yoga! Yoga is a means of becoming more flexible. In addition to learning flexibility of the body, it is about practicing flexibility in our daily life. Yoga is also about respecting and honoring ourself, regardless of physical ability or limitations.
Anyone can do yoga.
Classes are designed to accommodate all skill levels by modifying poses with the assistance of props so that everybody can reap the benefits of the pose.

Here's What You Need to Get Started

Yoga mat
Optional Props: block, strap and bolster

Yoga mats: If you get a good mat, you can expect to spend about $30-$75. I know. They aren't cheap. But the longer you practice and the more advanced you become, you will find the higher quality mats will help you grip better, not slide, etc... Also, be careful that your mat isn't too thick and squishy - I think a good thickness is around 1/8"-3/16". My mat is a Jade mat; I paid $60 for mine. I love it!!!
