Join Stacy for a sacred evening of self-connection where the practices of yoga and essential oils are woven together by candlelight. In this intimate gathering, carefully selected oils will be chosen by Stacy to support the evening's journey.  The class will begin by learning the emotional wisdom of each oil, before taking time to anoint ourselves mindfully - creating a personal ritual that speaks to your own needs and intentions.

From this grounded space, the class moves into a gentle, breath-centered yoga practice that invites you to listen deeply to your body's wisdom. The soft glow of candlelight helps us turn inward, while the lingering aromatics of our oils remind us to stay present with each breath.

PhysioSTRIDE™ – Walking Better with Jamie Elmer

In-Studio Workshop
$45 registered by June 7
$55 after June 7

PhysioSTRIDE™ is a system of analyzing and improving your gait, posture, and breath to help alleviate pain, heal injuries, and improve balance.

How we move in our everyday lives determines our muscular and joint health. Each time we walk, sit, stand, or exercise, these movements have the potential to make us stronger or weaker, as well as more/less balanced. With PhysioSTRIDE™, we examine how we move – from the ground up. Starting with our feet, we move through the legs and hips, to the back, shoulders, and neck. Through this practice, we can improve posture, alignment, and general function of the body.

By learning about our physical habits and refining them, we can make our body stronger, more flexible, more efficient, and more effective at healing injuries.

The PhysioSTRIDE™ system of analyzing how we walk, stand, and sit has numerous physical benefits from healing plantar fasciitis and back pain, to helping prevent falls in older adults. Individuals with chronic pain and mobility issues including scoliosis, knockknee, orthopedic surgeries of all kinds, osteoporosis, arthritis (and more!) have benefited from the results of PhysioSTRIDE™.

You’ll walk away from this workshop with a set of useful skills that can be applied to your daily life.

 

Jamie Elmer, E-RYT500, YACEP

For over two decades, Jamie has been a passionate teacher in the healing arts. Her background in anatomy, kinesiology, Pilates, and yoga enables her to provide well rounded care and help you become physically fit, balanced, and pain free. More information at www.movementtherapyco.com.

The Power of Breath – Yogic Breathing Workshop with Jeff Perlman

In-Studio Workshop
$30

Yogic breathing, known as pranayama, has been practiced for thousands of years and is often called “Conscious Breathing.” It is vital because the breath holds Prana (the life force), carrying our presence, awareness, creativity, and intelligence while bringing balance and harmony to the body, mind, and spirit.

 

“Our breath is the first and last thing we do in our lives; without breath, there is no life.” BKS Iyengar

 

During this workshop, Jeff will introduce you to this practice, one of yoga's eight limbs (steps). The class will start with a rejuvenating yoga sequence to prepare the body and mind, followed by a conscious breathing practice that brings calmness and introspection, relieves stress and anxiety, and benefits the respiratory, cardiovascular, and nervous systems.  This workshop is appropriate for students of any level.

Jeff Perlman is a Clinical Ayurvedic and Panchakarma Specialist, Massage-Marma Therapist and AHG Herbalist, Iyengar Yoga instructor, IAYT and AyurYoga Therapist, Certified Nutritional Practitioner, and Cordon Bleu Chef. For more info visit https://www.threeseasonsayurveda.com/

Myofascial Release and Corrective Exercise for Self-Care

This workshop will be both active and informative. You will learn to self-assess and understand your body’s malalignments, as well as any current movement patterns that have formed which may contribute to chronic postural problems, loss of mobility range, discomfort, or pain.

There has been a sharp rise in the number of people suffering from common musculoskeletal imbalances which aren’t brought on by an apparent injury. These imbalances can be caused by a number of factors: movement dysfunction, activity choices, prolonged static postures, footwear, surgeries, and sedentary lifestyles. Many of those suffering from such ailments do not need physical therapy but corrective exercise. The use of these assessments, self-myofascial release, restorative stretching, and corrective strengthening is fast becoming commonplace to remedy muscle and joint pain.

As a Corrective Exercise Specialist, Laura’s skill set is focused on addressing the body as a whole in order to identify underlying causes of chronic pain. We will build your body’s resilience together to help prevent harmful patterns from returning. We will be using the foam roller and other props to assist in our endeavors.

In this workshop we will both learn and practice by utilizing: structural assessments, myofascial release techniques, stretching, body centering, and corrective exercises. The benefits of this training will lead to a reduction of stress, improvement in active performance, and functional daily living.

 

Price: $65
Early-bird Price: $55 by March 31
Foam rollers and other required props will be provided.
