"Kundalini Glow" Class Theme with Nina
For the months of July/August 2009

Thursdays 7:30-9pm
Crystal Bowl Relaxation with Susan
 
9:30-11am, Tuesdays


Susan invites you to experience the sounds of the Crystal Singing Bowl as a tool to enhance deep relaxation in Svasana, the time of rest and stillness at the close of each class.

Crystal Singing Bowls are sound instruments made from pure quartz silica sand in a high temperature fusion process.   A bowl can resonate to a certain tone or note, which corresponds to a tone of the body’s chakras (energy points) and thus can harmonize and energize the body's systems.

Listeners describe a sense of being surrounded by the sound and of feeling its vibrations within.  A flowing practice of breath and postures, followed by relaxation with the Crystal Singing Bowl will leave you feeling both refreshed and restored.

For more information about Crystal Singing Bowls, visit www.sacredsound.ca.

Midsummer Night Yoga
An Evening of Yoga, Singing bowls and Kirtan
with Jeremy Sills and Susan McEwen

7:30-9:30pm, Friday Aug 14th
You may have noticed a new "member" to our team at the Yoga & Tea Studio.  Holding its own space in the corner of the room is a 30" Paiste symphonic gong made in Switzerland.

The sound waves created by the gong are so mesmerizing that within 90 seconds the mind has to surrender to the sound vibration of the gong. This allows for a deep healing at the subconscious level by removing fears, blocks and self-defeating habits.  It also strengthens the entire nervous system and balances the flow of energy within the body.

Experience an instant meditative state and therapeutic relaxation, as Nina will be playing the gong in her Kundalini classes during meditation or relaxation.

Drop-in for a class or use your flexible class pass.

Laughing Yoga Workshop with Sophie Terrasse

2 scheduled dates!
Friday July 17th
Friday Aug 21st
7:30 to 9 pm

Laughter is the best medicine!

Laughter Yoga is a unique concept of unconditional laughter where anyone can laugh for no reason at all. It does not rely on jokes, humor or comedy.  It initiates laughter as a form of an exercise in a group and as the session progresses, laughter becomes real and contagious laughter. 

Our body cannot differentiate between acted and genuine laughter. Both produce the same ‘happy chemistry' and Laughing Yoga is a blend of yogic deep breathing, stretching, and laughter exercises that cultivate child-like playfulness.

Join Sophie for a barrel of laughs and just watch the stress melt away...

Space is limited! $15 advance, $20 at the door.  Register here...
