August Updates

It's the middle of August and it's been a warm and sunny month! Yoga in Provencher Park on Thursdays at noon and Saturdays at 10 a.m. has been enjoyable. There are still two weeks left and the classes are free so come and join us!

Since September is just around the corner I've prepared new offerings for Fall 2016 that include yoga classes, restorative yoga workshops, and sound bath savasanas. For more information see my updated schedule and well as the "Events & Workshops" tab.

Private and corporate classes or events are also available and can be customized to suit your unique needs. I would love to explore these possibilities with you so feel free to contact me!

I hope to see you soon.

Live, love and breathe!

 

Free Yoga in Provencher Park!

Yoga in Provencher Park started today and it was nice and sunny in St. Boniface for the duration of our 45 minute practice!!! Four students attended and it was a bit noisy because of the traffic but we all enjoyed the nice breeze and the sun peeking through the leaves of the surrounding trees! If you’re planning to attend the August upcoming classes in the park, it would be a good a idea to bring an old beach towel to place under your yoga mat. Unfortunately, our mats were a little dirty from the concrete surface but otherwise it was great!

See details below for upcoming classes:

Thursdays at noon until 12:45, and Saturdays from 10-11 am, Aug 4 until Aug 27, please join me for karma (free) yoga classes in Provencher Park (on the concrete pad at the corner of Provencher & Langevin). Karma classes are typically donation-based, however, I am offering free classes as a way to give back to the community!

Classes will be Vinyasa Flow style. Suitable for beginners and all levels are welcome. Please bring your yoga mat and a water bottle (and perhaps a friend or two) and remember it’s best to give yourself at least 2 hours to digest meals or snacks before coming to a yoga class.

For safety reasons classes will be cancelled in the event of inclement weather at the yoga teacher’s discretion (that’s me!). I’ll be putting updates on my Facebook page or you can call or text me at 204-291-0439 for the latest info. If it’s very hot and humid I may also cancel the class since heat exhaustion is not on the program. :-)

Successful Summer Solstice Sound Bath

The Summer Solstice Sound Bath Savasana on June 17th was well attended. Feedback was very positive and at the conclusion of the sound bath Todd received a lot of inquiries about the Paiste gongs, which are amazing instruments. A few days later the actual solstice took place along with an exceptionally powerful full moon. The alignment in terms of astronomy and astrology produced a powerful 'galactic centre event' signaling the end and the beginning of a new phase of life.

Some people have already registered for the next Sound Bath Savasana which will be held on Friday, Sept 23rd to coincide with the Fall Equinox. There is limited space so feel free to reserve your spot early! More info to follow at a later date.

Enjoy a happy summer!
