Bhakti Thai & Fly Donation Class for Amma Humanitarian Projects

Friday, May 13th
6 - 8:30 PM

Bhakti Thai & Fly is a celebration of community and life. We open with the practice of Bhakti (devotion) Yoga through devotional chanting with live musical instrumentation. The blanket of group melody and pulse sets the foundation to practice the ancient art of Thai Massage and an incorporation of it’s techniques into Therapeutic Flying.
*This workshop is open to all and no partner is necessary. $20 suggested donation.

Therapeutic Flying & Thai Massage

Saturday, May 14th
10 AM - 1 PM

This gathering will focus on cultivating a deeper internal awareness, first through chanting, stillness, and a group Thai-Asana flow incorporating elements of Qi Gong, Thai Massage, and Yoga. From a place of stillness and conscious intention, we bring deep awareness into therapeutic touch and dynamic movements in a Thai Massage sequence. We will conclude the day with the foundations of therapeutic flying as well as refinements on moves and techniques on how to continue a home practice.
*Pre-req: 6 months regular yoga practice. Basing and flying experience recommended.

The Yoga of Acro Flying and Transitions

Saturday, May 14th
3 - 6 PM

This day will be dedicated to the yin and yang of Acrobatics, Yoga, how they interweave, and how they support one another. It is through this lens that makes for a unique approach to the Acrobatics of AcroYoga. This workshop will focus on and refine fundamental partner warm ups, strength elements, inversion training, and partner balance, basing, flying and spotting. We will use a flying flow as a template to explore how to train towards greater ease and grace in movement.
*Pre-req: 6 months regular yoga practice and safely attempting headstand and headstand w/ support as well as basic therapeutic Basing and Flying experience. Sat. Therapeutic course recommended.

Sirsana (Headstand) Workshop - $25
with Gillian St.Clair and Brett Williams.
Saturday, June 25th, 2 - 4 PM

Seriously we realize that headstands can be scary and many of you are not visiting this pose because of fear or lack of instruction. Sirsana the “King of Asana” CAN be practiced safely but is a very individual pose that needs much explanation and exploration. Sirsana if done correctly strengthen’s your musculoskeletal system, improve respiration, and stimulate digestion—all by standing on your head!!! So lets get this down. First we will learn to stand on our feet correctly, then move to our seats, shoulders and then heads. It will be fun and you’ll get it, then you’ll never get rid of it!!
*At least 4 months of regular practice required

Handstand Workshop
with Brent Coleman
$25
Saturday, July 9th 1 - 3PM


This workshop is for all levels whether you have never attempted a handstand or are already holding one in the center of the room. The first half will be an alignment based flow that prepares each student for a safe and logical next step in their own practice. Then we will workshop the pose itself. Some students will work on getting over the fear of being inverted while others will start to take variations and make their transitions in and out of handstand feel smoother and lighter.
