MONTHLY RESTORATIVE RESPITE 
Sunday, February 5th 
​4pm-5:30pm
In-Studio Only

MONTHLY RESTORATIVE RESPITE CLASS PASS: $18

Class is facilitated by Clarissa Boggess, E-RYT200/RYT500, YACEP. Join us for this practice of stillness and release. Through the slow, simple movements of Somatic Yoga, our class begins by softening muscles and connective tissues that contribute to pain and tension. We then move into the Restorative Yoga experience where we will explore 4-5 yoga poses, completely supported by props. These poses are passive rather than active, meaning that the muscles are in a state of near complete relaxation allowing the mind to soften and surrender. Poses are held for 5-10 minutes each depending on the posture. Our class finishes in deep relaxation with a fusion of guided meditation, mindfulness, and yoga nidra. ​
​Class is $18. Community Share Jar passes can be used for this class!!
​Register and access special Restorative Pass linked above.

QIGONG with Rebecca

​4pm - 5:15pm
​In-studio Only
​ALL STANDARD CLASS PASSES AND COMMUNITY SHARE JAR ACCEPTED FOR THIS CLASS.

REGISTER FOR February 12th QIGONG

Qigong is an ancient practice with roots in Taoism, which seeks to find harmony and balance through nature. Qigong philosophy is reflected in ancient Chinese medicine. It enhances health and well-being though the practice of slow continuous movements, or forms, and controlled breathing. Qigong practice improves strength, flexibility, and balance and can help reduce stress. Qigong forms can flow one into another or stand alone to be practiced through repetition. The structure of a Qigong class is similar to that of a yoga class in that one class does not necessarily build on the previous class, as is the case with Tai Chi. Tai Chi is a form of Qigong; however Tai Chi requires memorizing a pre-determined sequence of forms, whereas Qigong does not.

YOGA NIDRA with Lynda
Thursday, February  16th
In-Studio, 6pm
​​ALL STANDARD CLASS PASSES AND COMMUNITY SHARE JAR ACCEPTED FOR THIS CLASS.

February 16th Yoga Nidra

Yoga Nidra is a meditative yogic technique that facilitates deep physical, mental, and emotional relaxation. It is performed in shavasana (relaxation pose), wearing light, loose clothing, and lying comfortably in a "cocoon" or "nest" using blankets, pillow/bolster, eye pillow, neck support, whatever you need to feel completely comfortable. 
You will simply lie in shavasana (relaxation pose), remaining aware of the instructor’s voice and moving the focus of your mind according to the instructions. Rotation of conscious awareness proceeds in a sequence beginning with a detailed full body scan, then through any of a wide variety of visualizations. In this practice, you are encouraged to remain relaxed, spontaneous, and at peace -- not striving for anything but simply allowing whatever experiences arise... all experiences are valid. Although Yoga Nidra is often referred to as “yogic sleep,” your body and mind are completely relaxed and your mind is alert.
We will begin this practice with a few minutes of gentle stretching to get the kinks out before we settle down for this powerful, peaceful practice. Please bring a comfortable blanket or throw, socks, and your mat if you usually bring one. We will provide yoga mats, additional blankets, eye pillows, neck pillows, and bolsters for those who want to use them.  Remember, you are creating a cozy nest for yourself to relax in for about 45 minutes.

Sound Bath and Meditation
Friday, February 17th,
6pm-7pm
​In-studio Only

SOUND BATH & MEDITATION EVENT PASS: $10

Evening facilitated by Clarissa Boggess, owner/instructor
​Cost to attend: $10. Pre-register or Drop In. 
Join us the third Friday of every month for an evening of grounding, relaxation, and meditation utilizing the gong, singing bowls, and other sound/vibrational methods that have been shown to offer measurable health benefits, aiding in alleviating symptoms of anxiety and stress, promoting more restful sleep, support in lowering blood pressure, and pain relief. 
Expect to sit or lie in relaxation while the deep, earthy tones of the Chao gong and bright, soothing tones of singing bowls and bells wash over you. For stressed and overly-active minds, the tones from the gong give the mind something to anchor to as you learn to release into deeper states of relaxation.
Attendees are welcome and encouraged to bring their own yoga mat, pillows, blankets, or bolsters to pad their nest and support their comfort. The studio does have communal mats, blankets and bolsters available for public use at no additional cost. ​
