Sound Healing Workshop
Sound Healing with Quartz Bowls, Toning and Reiki
Join us for a two hour shamanic journey with Healer, Psychic and Musician Karin. Karin uses Quartz bowls and her voice to create sound for healing. The bowls are silica quartz and resonate deeply with our bones. This healing has the potential to release blockages both physically, emotionally, and spiritually. It can also helps relieve people of any physical and chronic pains. This therapeutic workshop is appropriate for people of all levels of spiritual development and no previous meditation experience is required. During the journey you will be laying down with pillows and blankets, Karin will bring you in and out of meditation, do a chakra alignment, and perform reiki on each of you individually. Karin will do a small reading before the journey begins to see what energy you need and one at the end to see how you received the energy.

Hip Opening Master Class for Teachers
with Sara Intonato
Unlocking the pelvic region is vital for our physical, emotional, and intuitive energies to flow freely. Join Sara Intonato, E-RYT 500, for this 2 hour practice to deepen your understanding of this intricate part of the body, specifically geared for a teachers' level of knowledge and ability. We will go beyond the basic levels of using the hip joints and slowly build towards more advanced asana, and in doing so will see how unleashing trapped energy in the hips can open the entire body. As our bodies and minds begin to release, we will discuss the chakras and the strong connection our mind has upon the pelvic region. By cleansing our bodies and minds of stagnant energy, this practice will inspire us to live more openly off our mats as well. This class will not only inspire your own practice, but will give you new insight into guiding your students through these often sensitive physical and mental challenges.

Back Bending Master Class for Teachers
with Sara Intonato
The heart is the most sensitive energy center in our bodies, easily opening and closing as we encounter joys and challenges both on our mats and in life. In this special practice for teachers, led by Sara Intonato, E-RYT 500, we will methodically awaken the heart center and introduce methods of maintaining this openness when we roll up our mats and embrace the all elements of daily life. Physically, the heart center directly encompasses the chest, upper back, and shoulders. Beginning with a gentle approach, we will embark upon an exciting and invigorating practice which will culminate in advanced backbends, breaking down asana appropriately along the way. Participants will also experience precise and purposeful adjustments, a crucial part of back bending guidance. Enjoy the opportunity to be a student during this special practice, and take home techniques to share with your own students.

Binding Pose Master Class for Teachers
with Sara Intonato
Many ancient practices involve binding poses to build strength as well as openness. These poses are often misunderstood by all levels of practitioners. Sara Intonato, E-RYT 500, will explore every element of these poses during class, especially those that are typically overlooked. When approached properly, binding asana can improve balance, cleanse and relax the nervous system, strengthen the bandhas, awaken the spine, chest, and many "hidden" spots. We will also explore the mental approach of non attachment and how binding poses are difficult to achieve without this. Join us for this fabulous class and experience how increased mindfulness can prevent "over-doing it" while still allowing one to deepen his or her practice. Don't miss this opportunity to be a more conscious yoga practitioner as well as acquiring knowledge to use in your own classes.
