February Workshop: Sensual Strong Body -- Exploring Core and Spine as River of Strength

This workshop will take place at Pranayoga, 1001 West 6th Street (directly next to Virgil's yummy pizza!).

You can go here to register and pay.

Sensual Strong Body: Exploring the Core as River of Strength via Burlesque and Butoh
Sunday, February 25th, 10 AM to 12:30
Cost: $35

The condition of your spine and the entirety of your torso -- or "core" -- tells the story of your health, flexibility, and strength. Working to keep this section of the body "fluid strong" is what will make for healthy aging.

In traditional Chinese medicine, they say the condition of your spine tells your true age.

During this two hours of curiosity based play, we will combine some things I've been wanting to combine for some time -- Kundalini yoga (as all my classes use bits of this), BURLESQUE and JAPANESE BUTOH principles.

We'll be working precisely and slowly. We'll still be working poetically but we'll take our time and go DEEP into the layers of these bodies to find our center and strengthen the whole of it for a more centered mind and a stronger, braver heart.

With burlesque as our guide, we'll dive into our feminine power and sensuality. With Japanese butoh as our guide, we'll dive into the mystery of individual creative expression.

NEW LOCATIONS, NEW STUDIO, Next Session of BodyPoetics and WaterSpine Yoga

OH EM GEEEEEEE!!! If you're allergic to cats, this is EXTRA great news, but it's GREAT news regardless. (If you've taken classes in my home studio, you know there are... cat hairs involved. ha.) We have a space, people, and it's super beautiful. See those photos. They can't even do it justice. SO PRETTY and a bathroom that is ten times prettier than my own. Maybe I will move in! For the month of June, there are two spaces: one for Sunday yoga and another for the BodyPoetics Dance classes so just pay attention to that when you're registering.

With Kundalini yoga’s focus on breath, there’s no way to lea...
