2- 4 pm Gentle Chair Yoga
 
Are you a yoga teacher who'd like to expand your teaching to benefit more students? Maybe you're interested in beginning a yoga practice and not sure where to begin? Chair yoga offers you the ability to improve your health through an amazing form of creative and adaptive exercise.

Did you know that almost all yoga poses can be modified for the chair? People with disabilities, injuries, weight challenges or inflexibility, can all benefit from yoga with a chair. The chair replaces the yoga mat and becomes an extension of your body allowing you to take advantage of yoga’s benefits, relaxing your body and mind, boosting your musculature fitness and flexibility, and improving your overall well-being.

Teachers of yoga and students alike will gain knowledge of using props to create a well balanced practice from a chair. What you learn in this workshop can be applied to mini yoga breaks at work, a long plane ride, or any time you need to balance the mind, increase blood flow and boost your energy.

What would it feel like to totally nurture and honor your body? Enjoy learning a yoga practice that is invigorating, fun, and accessible, but most of all, effective!

Accessing Mindfulness with Sarah Starr


Imagine letting go of your judgment of anything, living in just awareness. What if you could start to look at everything for what it is, not for what you want it to be or what you think it should be? This gathering is dedicated to experiencing the practical steps of "Living Every Day Mindfulness" as we explore the miracle that happens when you say "Yes" to what is. The teachings all point to the same thing: of being one with your life, allowing a sense of ease, appreciation and joy to emanate in your heart. Join us as we practice techniques to transition from a life of mind chatter and worry to a life created from awareness, filled with possibilities and invitations to play!
