A Note from Frankie

Dear Friends, 

This month I am excited to be announcing two upcoming workshops!  The first is Yoga for Balance on Saturday, March 10th.  In this workshop we will playfully explore our connection to the earth creating balance and stability in stillness along with grace and confidence in movement. It is open to yoga students of all levels.  If you feel that you struggle with balance this class is for you. Learn both key concepts for balance as well as ways to use props to support your practice.  If you feel that balance is one of your strengths, this workshop is also for you. I will be offering more adventurous variations to take your practice to the next level. 

Then in April, join me for Yoga & Tai Chi.  This workshop will be not be a blending of these two forms of movement and healing, but rather a unique opportunity to explore what each has to offer.  We will see similarities and as well as differences in each tradition.  I will share how I personally benefit from this body-mind-spirit "cross-training."  The course will include movement forms of tai chi and asanas (yoga poses) as well as breathing techniques, meditation practices and energy work from both.  This will be an afternoon of breath, energy and movement to awaken the physical and more subtle bodies. 

Finally,  we are starting a new six week Tai Chi daytime series this Friday at noon and the Beginning Qigong six week series this Wednesday evening at 7:15-8:45pm.  I apologize for any confusion from a typo that was online for the Qigong class saying that the class ended at 7:45pm.   It will go as always until 8:45pm. Both of these classes are open to students who have no previous study of Tai Chi or Qigong.  It is helpful if you register online at satyalife.com, by phone (863-802-9642) or in person before the class.  This is the perfect place and time to begin. 

Now onto one of my favorite subjects! Love and appreciation!  I am sending a warm and grateful thank you out to Christy, Mary, Joyce, Deb, Robbie and anyone I might be missing for doing an amazing job washing all our bolsters, blankets and straps. These are truly our spring cleaning angels!  Thank you Christy and everyone so much for this gift of time to the studio.

Another very special thank you goes to Kathie Patterson and Bob Herring for volunteering to join me for a Tai Chi demonstration last week.  

With Infinite Love and Appreciation for everyone at Satya Life Yoga,  
Namaste, 
Frankie   

New Yoga Workshop: 
Yoga for Balance  with Frankie Hart
March 10th, 2018 
Saturday 1:00 - 4:00 pm
Fee: $50 in advance, $55 day of

In this new yoga workshop, join Frankie Hart as she explores the aspect of balance in yoga. 
 
Did you know that in an electromyography (EMG) study (which records electrical activity produced by skeletal muscles) the more activated the toes are in standing poses the greater the lower leg muscle activity.  Simply said, this means that we are more successfully targeting the primary balance muscles of the lower leg.  Did you ever wonder why we pay so much attention to the toes in standing poses and the hands in handstands?  Now you know!   These seemingly small kinds of details unlock the secrets to creating stability and adventure in your poses.  How well does your dog balance on two feet? How sturdy is your tree?
 
Along with mastering the art of sustaining a yoga balance, whether it be on two feet, one foot, your hands, your head, your forearms, your sitting bones, or any of the many choices yoga offers us as "ground support" we also train to support or balance in movement.  It is often in these transitioning movements that we either build key building blocks of strength, mobility and proprioceptive awareness that are the key to achieving the grace and confidence in our practice or we lose or footing. Practice makes all the difference!
 
Frankie often says that balance is similar to a speaking a foreign language.  If you practice it, it comes back to you. 


 
This workshop is open to yoga students of all levels.  For experienced students, variations will be offered to challenge your yoga. For those who are working on achieving stability in their poses, Frankie will guide you safely into the po ses.

New Tai Chi Series
6 Week Series begins 03/02/18
Friday 12:00-1:15 pm
Beginners Welcome!


Tai Chi can perhaps best be thought of as a moving form of meditation.

It is a self-paced, noncompetitive, graceful form of exercise appropriate for all levels of fitness. Learning to do the forms correctly builds bone density as it increases muscle strength, flexibility and overall coordination. Practicing Tai Chi contributes to better standing, walking, and seated postures. Practitioners realize benefits including improved balance and posture, stress relief and ease of movement in life's daily activities.

Experiencing Tai Chi as meditation in motion creates a calm and tranquil mind.
For more information, call Joyce at 863-802-9642.

Sliding Fee:
$120.00 first 6 week series, $90.00 second series $60.00 third series, $45 fourth series and beyond.
