When we practice yoga, we work to stabilize, strengthen and lengthen our muscles to support our joints. When we add ball rolling methods into our regular routine, we get deep into the fascia and tissues that surround our muscles and joints, releasing sticky adhesions in the fascia matrix, promoting healthy movement and contraction of muscles, and exposing our body's blind spots that may be catalysts for pain or injury. Utilizing ball rolling techniques can interrupt destructive movement cycles and begin to fix the issues with your tissues, giving you more control over your health and well- being. |

DEEP DIVE INTO THE KOSHAS A 5-WEEK SERIES ON MONDAYS IN MARCH 2021 March 1, 8, 15, 22 and 29 8:30 - 9:15 a.m. We often think that WHO WE ARE is what we look like, how we feel, and what we think. When we attach to these labels and concepts, we forget about who we truly are at the core. We forget about our oneness with all of life and about the pure joy and inherent wisdom that resides within.

SVADHYAYA SELF-STUDY SERIES: Jan. 13-28, 2021
No doubt 2020 has shaken up our normal routines and made us question what we know to be true. Maybe you have identified a newly-developed pattern in how you treat yourself or others and want to change. Or perhaps you have been given the gift of realizing that your old pre-Covid habits no longer serve you. Maybe you have discovered that you want to deepen your awareness of how you move through this world or you want to explore the yoga practice beyond asana.

Winter is nature's invitation to go inward, slow down and take time to self-reflect. In the New Year, we take stock of where we are in our lives and resolve to make changes to better ourselves. And the new moon--a symbol of new beginnings--gives us the opportunity to set clear intentions for personal and spiritual growth in the coming months. This is the perfect time to choose to shift and grow. When we set the intention to do so, we not only improve our own lives but the lives of everyone we touch.
