With the conclusion of our initial Community Conversations circle over the summer, we found ourselves desiring more opportunity to gather in this way. It became a space where we could vulnerably share and listen without judgement – even when faced with challenging topics.

In an effort to create more opportunities for this type of community building to continue, we are happy to have Madison – longtime Satya student and yoga practitioner, and all around great human – to lead us twice a month in a Community Building Circle offering. For more information, see our website.

Discover the upper body alignment for our personal structure, so that we experience freedom in shoulder movement. Appreciate a new confidence in shoulder and hand mobility and strength. This is the third workshop which completes the body alignment series.

We will learn:
• how to use the arm and shoulder properly
• myofascial releases for neck, shoulder, elbow, wrist or hand pain
• the proper hand alignment for weight bearing to improve neck posture for shoulder safety
• why lifting weights (or the body) can be good and bad

In the practice session, we will
• have a short practice for shoulder freedom
• experience arm poses with a new awareness and ease
• strengthen bones, ligaments, and tendons from neck to hand
• engage muscles correctly for strength and support
• learn how to safely build an arm balance

This will be a feedback workshop, so ask questions and/or ask to explore special topics (rotator cuff injury, tennis elbow, carpal tunnel pain, etc.) By request, the workshop time has been extended: for slide review, to safely practice inversions (optional) with assistance from each other, and/or in-depth discussion.

The winter solstice has been a significant occasion for all cultures throughout history. It is the shortest day of the year, when there is more darkness than any other day. However, it is also a turning point when the waning daylight is reversed and the growing daylight begins. It is the birth of budding light during a time of great darkness. This day can be celebrated to savor the main qualities of the winter solstice: darkness and light.

This workshop will center on the intention to honor the darkness and invite the light within all of us. We will honor and investigate the darkness with forward folds and invite the growing light with an exploration of sun salutations. A guided candlelight meditation will take us deep within ourselves to find the presence of the solstice within us: even in the greatest darkness, there is light.

A perfect way to de-stress in a playful way. These classes will have a mix of movement & mindfulness, using yoga poses, breathing exercises, and relaxation as a way to reconnect with the body while also releasing stress that may have built up through the day. Each session will include getting familiar with a foundational yoga pose, along with interactive ways to integrate and access imagination through games and play.
