Two Workshops Coming Up This Fall



Coming up just in time for the winter holidays "Restful Yoga for Stressful Times": a restorative yoga practice will be held on from 3-5 PM Sunday December 11. Restorative yoga is a wonderful practice of asana (postures) supported with bolsters, blankets and other props. I also include several pranayama (breathing) practices that are known for their stress and anxiety relieving properties. The class fee is $35. Both of these workshops are very beginner friendly, and a great way to experience the power of yoga to enhance your health and wellness!
Pre-registration is REQUIRED!
Class size is limited to 12 participants for each.
Both workshops are held at my Eagledale studio.

Fall Mother & Daughter Yoga Retreat













We had another lovely group of girls and moms yesterday for the Fall Retreat. A 'full house' with 7 couples with ages ranging from 8 to...well my age! A strong group of "yogi-moms", many were returning for their second (or fourth!) Mother & Daughter Day, all of them seemed happy and grateful to have this day with their daughters. The daughters were delightful and skilled in their asana practice, patient in the restorative practice (a full 90 minutes) and creative with the henna tattooing.
Luncheon was a hit with yummy soups from Metro Market Catering: African Yam Peanut Stew, Tomato, Polenta and Corn Soup, and Carrot Ginger Soup, with accompaniments of breads, crackers, cheeses and fruit. My lovely daughter Sophie was another great help with the whole day and with the food prep especially (she made the mini cupcakes and the jam tartlets).
I plan on offering a Mother's Day Edition in late April. Stay tuned!
