A Note from Frankie
Dear Friends,
As we approach the dog days of summer, it's a wonderful time to dive into something new. Summer at the studio is always fun! I pack in some juicy treats for us so we can enjoy our "stay-cations" and get fit for those beach days ahead.
Next Saturday is a new workshop in our Yoga Asana and Anatomy Series. I am very excited about this course! It will be the first time that I am teaching the four myo-fascial arm lines and illuminating how a clear understanding of this anatomy can offer new strength and mobility when inverting. Unlike other inversion workshops I am opening this one to everyone who is interested in exploring the neck, shoulders and trunk in this way. We will be looking at the anatomy in a physical and functional way and then applying this experience to the poses. Downward facing dog is the first inversion that we learn in yoga. Students who are not currently inverting are invited to participate in the anatomy portion and beginning asana work and then have the opportunity to observe the more advanced inversions giving their yoga a future. Those of us inverting will enjoy a significant amount of time upside down changing the way we see everything. The early bird rate ends the Friday before the workshop - so sign up early to save.
Our 300 hour Yoga Alliance Approved Teacher Training at Satya Life Yoga starts August of 2017 and our class is assembling beautifully. This program is for Yoga teachers who have completed a 200 hour certification. Graduates of the course are eligible to receive a 500 hour certification through Yoga Alliance. It is comprised of 12.5 intensive retreat-like weekends. If you are thinking about taking this next step remember that if you enroll by June 15th you save over $250.00! If you have any questions, free Informational sessions are available upon request. Get to know us and learn about our program. Class sizes are small so you receive invaluable learning and attention developing both your personal yoga practice as well as the skills to empower the teacher within you.
For the Qigong practitioners, Tai Chi players and all of us interested in energy work and healing, I want to remind you that Master Hao will be returning to Satya Life Yoga in July. This year the Qi healing course is a one weekend program surrounded by days of private or semi-private sessions with Master Hao. The Shao-Lin Stick Therapy that so many of us enjoyed in our private sessions last time is part of the course work. If you enroll by June 16th, there is an early bird savings of $90.00.
Singer/songwriter Rebecca Folsom comes to Satya Life Yoga to perform songs from her new albums "Extraordinary Days" & "Little Medicines" on Sunday July 23rd. Tickets are only $15.00 and they are online now. If you like folk music, you will find that Rebecca is one of the finest. Please help us get the word out! This program promises to be a treasure! Join us for this barefoot concert. Check out another great music video of Rebecca in the newsletter below...
Wanting to diversify your summer even more? Try the new Yogabarre class starting next Thursday or fly with us in the Evening Aerial.
I look forward to seeing you on the mat! With good fortune, you'll be greeted by Nisha as she shows off a most proper down dog posture. :)
