Svaroopa® Yoga Series: Blissful Body, Peaceful Mind with Ajeet Khalsa
Wednesdays, 2/1 – 2/22/2012 ; 7:45 – 9:00pm
Open your spine by methodically releasing the tension from habitually contracted spinal muscles.
The Svaroopa® Series on Wednesdays is a 90-minute classes done in a four-week series. The classes are based on specific themes, one for each month of the year and each theme includes a set of poses for a particular purpose. In all classes, the core purpose is to open your spine by methodically releasing the tension from habitually contracted spinal muscles. This core opening prepares you to experience the specific benefits of each individual theme. With a year of dedicated practice, you will likely notice change that you could not have imagined at the beginning: Opening, healing, and transformation in your body and mind — and in your life.
Lower Spinal Release Theme : In lower spinal release, you deepen spinal opening. Focus will be on the poses that provide you with predictable and reliable benefits. You will discover that Svaroopa® yoga practice provides you with immediate and reliable effects such as increased leg strength, realigned knees and feet (and the healing of such conditions as plantar fasciitis), lengthened low back, lessening or elimination of sciatica and sacroiliac joint pain, improvement in shoulder, neck, and jaw pain – and a quieter mind!
* While the themes are progressive, as a beginner you do not have to start in a class with the first theme, Daily Practice. However, it is recommended to have a private session to support a home practice along with our weekly offerings at the studio.

$50 per student.

6-Week Beginner’s Hatha Yoga Series with Judson Nichols
Thursdays, 3/1 – 4/5 ; 7:45-9:15PM
Beginning Hatha Yoga will teach the absolute beginner the basics of yoga.
The lessons learned in the class form a strong foundation for a home practice and taking more advanced yoga classes. If you’ve never done yoga before, this is the way to start! We’ll be doing poses and a small number of breathing exercises.
A beginner’s series like this has several advantages over just jumping into an ongoing class:
- Taking it slow: If you’ve ever tried to learn something where you couldn’t keep up with the instructor, then you’ll appreciate the pace of this class. First the instructor will show you how to do it, then talk you through it. If you don’t understand, you can even ask questions!
- Targeted to YOU: We’re all unique, but some of us are more unique than others. With the pace of this class, you can get suggestions for how to modify the yoga poses taking into account your body’s idiosyncrasies, whether that’s due to injury, age, weight, or just the way you’re made!
- Something to take with you: At the end of this series, you’ll have a solid yoga practice that you can do at home without instruction. And when you take more yoga classes, you won’t have to wonder why the teacher keeps talking about upside down dogs! Depending on one’s focus, yoga can help in a wide variety of areas: strength, flexibility, cardiovascular health, posture, anxiety reduction, focus, and awareness.
$75 per student.
